aggressive form of breast cancer.If you wish to send condolences

Oxon DA Easter Meet

Treasurer (again)
The deadline has now passed for notifying HQ in Coventry of the name of the treasurer for 2016. Kathy Giles (MCS secretary) has asked Kath, our current treasurer, to continue in the post until the group's AGM in April which she has reluctantly agreed to do. As a result of the poor attendance and lack of new treasurer the current committee feel that there is now no future for the group and will be retiring at the AGM. We have only one meet scheduled (Old Warden) before the AGM and it that will now be cancelled. However Easter 2016 is an invitation from Kent group to join them in Broadstairs so we hope to meet lots of you there. Dave, our sites secretary, has put together a full program for 2016 but under the circumstances we do not intend to publish the sites list as we do not know if the group will still exist next year. |
Treasurer
At the last NL&EA AGM in March it was announced that the treasurer was resigning and a replacement was needed. Since then we have appealed in Waggoners Talk, on the website and in Facebook. We have had only one person show interest but he decided, on reflection, that we was unable to give the time required. |
Treasurer still required

CANCELLATION OF MUSEUM OF POWER
CANCELLATION OF MUSEUM OF POWER meet 18th to 20th Sept. From Dave Ainsworth: Due to double booking of the site by the museum I'm sorry to say I must cancel this meet. Sorry for any inconvenience but I made a firm booking back in April. Although MOP accept responsibility for the mix up it doesn't help us. If you know anyone who intends to go can you please tell them. Glad I popped in today to check the site!. See you at Clacton on Sea. |
