Hi there Folks. Here we are at the last round of the winter series. Round 8 is likely to start at the Beam Bridge Wellington. Sheila and I would like to thank all those who came out and supported this years series. We have managed over the last seven rounds to find some new roads by going a little farther out of town. hopefully that didn’t put too many people off. The awards presentation will take place after the AGM on the 23rd March.

***** AGM 23rd MARCH*****
AGM happening soon. The venue for the next AGM will be the Allerford near Norton Fitzwarren. ALL paid up club members welcome. Its your chance to have a say on whats happening with the club AND the perfect opportunity to join the committee and have a direct input into the clubs activities. Last year it was suggested that we need to do more with the clubs website. Sadly there were no volunteers to do this. This is a request in advance of the AGM…. If you have a few hours a year to help out it would be gratefully accepted. I would like to expand our social activities but i cannot do this without help so again if there is anyone out there who would be prepared to come on the committee. The meetings are once a month for about an hour on the third Monday of the month.
The plan for the AGM is to hold the meeting from 8pm again should be no more than 45 mins after which there will be a FREE BUFFET followed by the awards presentation from the Winter series. If all who can attend let me know so i can order the right amount of food for the BUFFET. As usual message me on facebook or text/phone on my usual number 07980 239730.
