In accordance with the Club’s constitution we must hold an Annual General Meeting (AGM) each year. This year’s AGM meeting will be held as a ZOOM Meeting on Wednesday 19th August at 7.30pm. We understand that not all members will be able to attend but we encourage as many members as possible to join the meeting using the links and information that will be issued closer to the meeting date.

If you wish to nominate anyone for a position, please contact Secretary Susan Slack by email (gordon.slack15@bigpond.com) or by telephone: (0249471118). Nominations need to be completed by 14th August.
