PRESENTATION EVENING 2021
Friday 12 November was the joint 2020 and 2021 presentation night, and a chance to get together and have a few beers.
Ian Coleman gave a summary of the financial status of the club, which is very healthy.
Many members paid all or part of their subs on the night.
Some discussion also focussed on:
Weighing equipment and weighing-in teams/procedure

The holiday next year to Manor farm.
