March 2008
We held our Annual General Meeting on Monday 25th February at the Timberdine Harvester Restaurant , Bath Road, Worcester at 8pm, it was a very pleasant evening. Seventeen of us were there and we enjoyed a meal before the meeting. The chairman reviewed the year and said that we had had a difficult time with the weather during the year which had meant the cancellation of our junior drivers camp. Two Fun Cones days were held and there were training sessions for our members with Sarah Wildy LHHI during the autumn and winter. There will be two Fun Cones days at the Hyde again this year, one in the spring and one in the autumn.
