AGM Report 2014
Chairman Jim Hornsby (in the chair) and 19 other members were in attendance. There were apologies for absence from 10 members.
The Officer Reports had been previously circulated and the Treasurer produced interim figures for the membership. He confirmed that the club was in a healthy financial position because of cost saving measures, and felt no need to increase subscriptions. He did however remind members of the need to give apologies if not attending lunches, because this could cost the club if numbers were more than one or two different to those booked.
Outgoing Chairman Jim Hornsby said how much he had enjoyed his year of office and thanked the Committee and Members for their support. He particularly thanked those Members who had spoken to him personally. The incoming Chairman John Heaton was invested with his badge of office by Jim who wished him well. John thanked members for appointing him Chairman and handed Jim his past Chairman’s tie and thanked him for his efforts during the past year.
The following Officers were confirmed for year 2014 - 2015
Chairman John Heaton
Secretary David Dunk
Assistant Secretary Len Collins
Speaker Finder Len Collins
Treasurer John Heaton
Assistant Treasurer Stanley Samalionis
Membership Secretary Jim Hornsby
Press Reporter Ken Tunstall
Immediate Past Chairman Jim Hornsby

Hon Auditor Barrie Beckett
The Chairman pointed out that this still left the positions of Vice Chairman and one Committee member vacant and he asked that anyone willing to fill either of these positions should contact him. He added that only members who had served on the Committee were eligible for appointment as Vice Chairman.
