MCSA President, Dave Jones, wants to express his sincere thanks for the support and advice he received from the 2009 Executive Committee. "In particular, I commend the outgoing  Vice-President, Ulli Deutschlander, for his prompt responses whenever I sought advice. I am delighted with the strength of the new committee elected at the AGM on 17 April and especially with its sectional/regional balance. I am particularly thrilled to welcome Otti Neser on board as Vice-President as it is believed to be a first in this position for the fair sex and an overdue move in gender equality." (There certainly never before has been four 4 female MCSA chairpersonson Cencom in one year; probably never more than one).

Central Committee has adopted the Cape Town Section's slogan “explore – discover – connect – protect” as the MCSA’s national slogan with the Afrikaans provisionally set as:

"verken – ontdek – ontmoet – bewaar”.
