The event celebrated the culmination of 15 months hard work and committed endeavour by locals Michael Cogman and Kingsley Forsyth.

The inauguration ceremony was presided over by Australian National President Ralph Fitzpatrick in the presence of 11 visitors from interstate and overseas. Twenty-eight Catenians were welcomed into the Association.

Office bearers are Kingsley Forsyth (President), Andrew Mulholland (Vice President and Treasurer), Conroy Saldanha (Secretary), Rennie Louis (Chamberlain), Joshy Scaria (Registrar), Ramon Salazar (Marshall), Joshua Newnes (Marketing and Publicity Officer) and Michael Cogman (Provincial Councillor).
