Yes, here we go again, with the start of the upcoming season heralded by all members being asked to sign (and pay) up for 2019 (click here for your Subscription form - Subs Day is Friday, 5th April) and by the holding of the Club's AGM on Friday 15th  February.

 

The audience waited with eager anticipation for the meeting to start.

The full business dealt with at the meeting is reported in the minutes, but it is worth noting that the election of Committee members and Club officers saw a number of changes as long-serving holders stepped down.

Nobody stood for Social Secretary to replace Ray Cole, who has been supported by wife Chris in the role, so future events will be managed ad hoc by the Committee. A big thank you to Ray & Chris for all the hard work over the years. Also thanks to Jan Rush who stood down as Club Captain and was replaced by Ray Jeffs. Ted Brothers also deserved a thank you for his time as Mid-week Men's Captain; he is replaced by Graham Aylett who will be looking after the Vets competitions with David Levy taking care of the friendly matches.

New Members' Representatives on the Committee are Phylis Playfoot and David Levy, who replace Glenys Piner and Len Rush; many thanks to both. No-one stood to replace Dave Gibbons as Club Vice-Captain so the post is vacant this year - thanks to Dave for his past efforts.The indefatigble Jenny Moore has moved on to pastures new and will be missed as Midweek Ladies' Captain; it is understood that a replacement maybe forthcoming soon - to be announced. Our new Green Ranger is Mike O'Bryan in place of Ray Jeffs who is now focusing on his Club Captain role. In the absence of any takers for the job of Maintenance Officer, Geoff Taylor has agreed to act as main contact for maintenance matters - thanks Geoff.

Gaye Armstrong has added book/CD/DVD sales to her role as Welfare Officer (thanks to Marion Jeffs for taking care of the books previously) and Frankie Milward is now Birthday Secretary in place of Anne Clark - thanks to Anne for her sterling efforts in remembering all our birthdays! Finally Phylis Playfoot has stepped down as joint ladies representative to the Harrow and District Ladies Bowling Association - Ann Sutherland continues as our rep.

The above covers all the changes. As you will see from the full list to be found here (Committee members) andd here (Other Officers), a number of holders continue from last year, and we are grateful to all office holders for their work in keeping the Club going!  Full contact details for all Club committee members and officers are available in the Members' Area here .
