Future Events

Newsletter from Glyn

We will be holding a get together to discuss the trip and just generally next year's visit and possible fund raising ideas. This will be in the upstairs room at the Town Hall Wednesday 11th July at 7:30 p.m.
Please bring a plate of something savoury to nibble/share and anything sweet if that is what you enjoy.
There is limited car parking behind the Town Hall and I’m afraid it will be a case of first come, first served.
 There are also 2 fund raising events we are looking to take part in.
 Firstly, 4th August on the seafront, Devon Air Ambulance are holding a street fair and we will be running a raffle. Prizes and offers of help please.
 Secondly, 27th August is the Carnival Street fair. That will be a Tombola stall and again prizes and offers of help wanted please.

Visit to Thury 2012 - Photos

A report on our visit to Thury-Harcourt will follow. The object of this post is tell everyone that a new album of 45 photos of our visit has been uploaded. The link is on the right. These were taken by just two of our members and therefore fail to give a balanced view. We need more. If anyone has photos that they would like to see in the album, please talk to Clare Jones or any other member of the committee.

Report of the AGM

Our Secretary, Glyn Roberts writes:-

Greetings Everyone This brief newsletter is to bring everyone up to speed with the events of Fridays AGM and developments since then. I had a change of circumstances and was able to stand as Secretary and was duly elected. Shiona Rudge was elected Treasurer and Ken Beer was elected to the Committee. Irene Harrison was re-elected as Chair but has since resigned. We thank her for service. We need a new Chair which must come from the Committee. So far I have one nomination for the Committee, Clare Jones. If anyone wishes to stand for the Committee please nominated and seconded names to me by next Monday, 5th March. We need one more name for marshalling the Grizzly please volunteers names to me please. Names also needed for our trip to Thury ASAP, plus any membership fees due please. At the United Reformed Church on Weds 1st March at the United Reformed Church, Cross St. Seaton there is a meeting re saving St Clare’s. Names are needed to sign the petition so as we use the building it would be good if members could get along and add their names. 7:30 p.m. start time.
