Club Meeting — Annual General Meeting

Tue, May 28th 2019 at 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm


President Mike Jane welcomed ten other members. Bill Deans reminded members that raffle prizes are still required for next Thursday's D-Day 75th Anniversary Concert in the Victoria Hall. Douglas Dow reported that the recent can collection in Helensburgh Co-op raised £522.

Adam Muggoch reported that the inaugural S1-3 Young Musician competition run in Hermitage Academy last Thursday by the Helensburgh Garelochside club had been a great success, with some exciting performances highly praised by the adjudicator.

Alastair Wilson reported on the very well organised District 1230 P7 Quiz final held in Glasgow last Tuesday, which was entered by 21 schools. It was won by Glasgow Academy, with two very large primary schools second and third, so the performance of 24-pupil Arrochar Primary School in finishing fifth was highly praiseworthy.

The secretary then conducted the Annual General Meeting, at which reports were given by the standing committees. Treasurer Lesley Kennedy reported on the budget for 2019-20, proposing a reduction in annual subscription from £110 to £100, which was unanimously approved.

The president proposed, and the secretary seconded, that founder member Gordon Burgess be elected an honorary member for 2019-20, and this was unanimously approved. Re-elected as associate members were Derek Bowman, Linda Harvey and Phil Hopkinson.

Ron Dunachie was again appointed as Accounts Examiner, Reay Mackay was confirmed as Junior Vice-President, and standing committee chairmen were named as Bill Jones, Community and Vocational Service, and Reay Mackay, Internatonasl Service. The post of Youth Services convener has still to be filled.

Douglas Dow and Derek Hall were elected as the club representatives on the District 1230 Council, with Donald Fullarton and Reay Mackay as substitutes.

The weekly raffle for a whisky miniature was won by Alastair Wilson.
