Annual visit from the DG. Speaker Host - Alan Shipp, General Host - Terry Gardner, Cashier - David Ellis.
Tonight we were lucky to have our current District Governor as our guest Speaker (covering East Anglia).
Welcome Derek & Deidre !
We were very interested to hear his take on the year so far, and the future District Plans.
In return he was happy to take note of our frustrations with District including such things as Council Meetings, aspects of the website template and the Conference.
The Jam Initiative and the idea of a mass Tea Party to support the Purple4Polio were floated.
