Annual Meeting

This meeting will have the main feature of business reports from the year and presentation of the Competition Cup.

Social time will probably include a buffet and a drink as usual. Perhaps some interesting activities will be available. 

Review of the evening
The Business of the year was carried out with Treasurer, Minutes secretary and President reading their reports. It has been a good year with a varied programme, wonderful trips and a slightly increased membership. The Committee have worked hard to produce entertaining and interesting meetings for members to enjoy as you can see from elsewhere on the website. The Programme secretary outlined her plans for the coming year and we are all looking forward to our joint Christmas party with Blisworth WI.

The Competitions Cup was a very close run thing with Sheila Charlton pipping Paula Neal to the post with 69 points to 68. Sheila will be the last cup holder for a while as we have decided that the members aren't sufficiently interested in carrying on this tradition.

A light buffet was provided by the Committee for members to enjoy and everyone was asked to discuss ideas for the future.

Competition: Harvest Collage - There were no points awarded because of the decision to stop the competition running. However, Sheila and Paula both produced entries for display.
