The cost will also be the same as last year, namely £28 per person.

His address is Thorpe House, 9 The Thorpe, Hemingford Grey, Huntingdon, PE28 9DA. burwoodalan@aol.com Menu choices to be given to Dave Burton, email address below, also by 3rd November please.
It has become customary for members to donate a raffle prize at this event, the raffle to be held during the evening. All prizes therefore gratefully received on arrival.
We very much look forward to seeing you there.
As regards the AGM, we always try and keep this short and sweet, and it only occupies a minor part of the evening, taking place after the meal. Should any member wish to be considered for a committee post, please advise Trevor or Dave also by 3rd November. The posts available are:
- Group Leader, including duties of Membership Secretary, Social Scene Magazine and Events email Editor, Data Protection Officer, Chairing of meetings, attendance at annual Group Leader's meeting, Web master, Events Coordinator, Liaising with TR Register office, Directors and Group Leaders.
- Treasurer, including duties of keeping accounts, administering the group bank account, making and receiving payments, claiming allowances from club head office, attending meetings.
- 5 posts on the Events Committee, including duties of assisting, coordinating or organising group social events, attending events committee meetings.
At present the group leader role has been fulfilled by two persons acting together, Dave Burton & Trevor Sherwood, and both are prepared to re stand for election in the same capacity next year. Our current Treasurer Alan Burwood is also happy to re-stand for election next year. Three of the five current Events Committee members are willing to re-stand for election next year, which means that there will be potentially two uncontested Events Committee positions if anyone is interested in contributing.
