CLUB’S AGM

We usually try to include community organisations’ AGM’s with regular Sunday lunches for convenience of members. However, this year it’s been particularly busy, so Club will hold its AGM on a "stand alone” date later in the year. Date will be advised in due course and Notices will be published well prior to meeting date.
