Special Business Meeting

11 Jul 2019 - Special Business Meeting

We had an open discussion on the way we make payments for our weekly meetings and our Annual subs.

Chris H.then put the proposal that we set up standing orders for £36/month to be paid into a dedicated account, which Treasurer Ann will set up and notify members.  However, there will be flexibility for some members who wish to operate individually.

There will also be details of the Clubs account distributed, so that those who wish to pay on-line by Bank transfer(BACS), can do so.

There was also discussion on our forthcoming Special 30th Charter, with venue, dress and entertainment the main topics.  There was a strong sense for a formal event, possible return to Trent Bridge and further investigation of possible entertainment.  

This was followed by a "Wimbledon" quiz, won on table 2 with a pathetic 13 points out of a possible 30                                                                                     AR

16 July 2019 - Sothwell Racecourse - Rotary Fund raising for DMRC

A very pleasant warm evening was enjoyed by President Jane, Keith, Adrian, Gina, David E and Judy(& friends) and Allen at this event organised by Susan Pickworth. Keith started with a win( although he had a tip from former footballer and betting shop owner Ian Storey- Moor!), but the rest of us struggled to win deciding that local Trainer and jockey family of the Skelton's were favourites in most races, so not worthy of odds on investment.  So we all focused on eating fish'n'chips or ham cobs and drinking, a most enjoyable , fun event raising the profile and awareness of our wonderful organisation.                AR
