The 2006 Season Meeting was held at Heywood just outside of Portland.

Excellent facilities were available and our thanks goes to our host Travis Field and his family for the site.

The shooting was fair, many members shot ducks but could not retrieve them

Our President for the last year Robbo, handed the honour over to Silvio (left) after a hotly contested vote with Carmelo and Carlo.

The Presidential speech was made and the offical presidents hat handed over. Next year goals were set and the President promised not to lose the hat. The new president was then challenged by one of the juniors not to be the first one to sleep. With great Presidential steely strength, the new President summoned all his will power and beat the upstart challenger and managed to stay awake till midnight. For those with life long knowledge of our new president this would be the equivalent of a normal man walking around the earth.

Travis was unusually quiet this year, we suspect this was due to fact he was within the 200km idiot zone and would be recognised by any locals if he played up too much. It may also me due to the fact we had several visitors, firstly a local aboriginal who really seem to irk young Travis, then by the local constabulary who needed a lift to camp. One of our newer members Jannan spent the whole weekend clutching his back pack and quoting the koran about the opression of muslims, were hoping he'll just grow out of it. If he keeps holding in all this anguish we fear he might explode! He also apparently has issues with mud, which is a little too much like the shuffler.

Saeed spent most of the time in his tent, we thought he was sleeping but apparently he was trying on womens outfits the whole time, we know this because he kept forgetting to take of the womens high heels when he came back out of his tent.

Vido won the senior claybird comp and Ben won the junior comp. Marco tested out the new Hilux in the creek which meant due to the challenge so too did Travis. Marco also tried to cook a sausage in the jaffle iron after a wash in the creek but could not get it open. Carmelo bought a lounge suite along and proceeded to sleep the whole weekend in it.

Greeny and Robbo thought that due to fact we were so close to the aboriginal mission, we should pay homage to their way of life, and proceeded to drink almost a full bottle of petrol, in the guise of bacardi 151. Needless to say there was no burping or farting too close to the fire.

A few new Junior members were bought along for their first meeting, Ben & Daniel Green, Matt & Scotty Lardener, they were very quckly and sternly taught the golden camp rule "What happens at camp, Stays at camp".

All in all a good weekend and all of the Johnsons bylaws were strictly adhered to,

Drink too much, Eat too much, Talk a lot of Shit, Sex and Religion and generally laugh at life.
