This month’s meeting incorporated the AGM at which a new President was appointed, together with a new Vice President. Eddie Timmins succeeded Ken Jones as President while Steve Parfitt became Eddie’s Vice President.
Two new Members were welcomed in to the Club at the meeting, Dave Nash & John Whittingham. Additionally Des Donnelly was made a “Life” member and Chris Furness was presented with an “Honorary Certificate” in appreciation of his contribution to the Club.
Nominations for the Committee were accepted by the Members with David Carr and Chris Furness stepping down after many years of service on the Committee. Both were thanked for their service to the Club.
The AGM was followed by a normal monthly meeting after which an excellent hot pot was served together with apple crumble and custard. Jenny Davenport and her staff were thanked for the excellent food they had prepared.
The Events Co-ordinator announced that he was considering forming a Probus Sunday Luncheon Club and invited members to record their interest in joining. Initial response was encouraging.
