Check the latest Hawkboard news with Grant Dudley..
The club AGM was held on 31st January, and elections for committee offices took place. The presiding chairman read out nominees for each office, and a show of hands was asked from members present to indicate their choice for that office. The process was made simple by the fact that there was only one nominee per position. Once the committee members were decided, the chairman stood down and his office was decided by the same process. the results were as follows:
Chairman: Glynne Malkin Secretary: Kate Malkin Treasurer: Marvin Moore Hawkboard Rep: Grant Dudley Events: Dave Whittaker Owls and Social Events: John Elliott Webmaster: John Tyas
Welcome aboard to the new committee members, and a huge vote of thanks to the existing committee for steering the ship through a tough time, particularly to Julian, who stood in as chairman pending the AGM. Grant Dudley, our Hawkboard rep attended his first meeting on 30th Jan, and enjoyed the experience. He met and chatted with several board members and club reps, and is dedicated to keeping the club posted on issues concerning our sport in the future. This site will be dedicating a page especially to Grant for Hawkboard news and views, but as discussed at the AGM, we would encourage all members to use the forum if you have anything you would like Grant to take to the Hawkboard on yours or the clubs behalf - that's why we created it. The Forum is also a great means of communication between all of us for whatever reason - we know people are viewing posts - but very few are replying or creating posts of their own. So remember - if you have anything you would like to ask the committee, whether it's for help and support if you are new to the sport, whether you have a bird or articles for sale, whether ( as Paul Dickie did ) it's to warn people of threats of theft regarding vehicles or birds..put it up there!! Looking forward to 2008, happy hawking!!
