AGM and First meeting in new venue

Good meeting tonight in the new venue, The Dunn Cow, at Bournmoor, while The Travellers Rest is being refurbished we will be there until January. From the sign in sheet it looks like we had 21 people there with at least 8 club cars.

It was the AGM tonight too and Geoff was elected as the new Area Organiser with Deryck as his deputy. Yes they always dress like this for the AGM :-)

Kevan continues as the Treasurer ably assisted by Chris and Gavin. 

Many thanks to Mark who steps down as long serving AO. 

There was lots of discussion about future social events and plans for Christmas, so watch this space and the email list for updates. 

Thanks
