We were also pleased to welcome Kayla Blender to our meeting again.
Thank you to Tony Austin for his work organising us for the show gates and thank you to everyone who helped on the day.Secretary Chris reminded us that the AGM notice has been circulated to all members and that we need to have nominations for all office bearer and board positions for the night.
Please consider making yourself available or nominating someone .  The AGM is always a quick but very important meeting for our Club.
