AGM, Club Dinner and Awards

The club AGM went off without a hitch on Sat 26th Jan.  Only a handful turned out to support the club, but what's new?

The committee members reported on 2007 flying and events. Due to the poor weather, not much flying was done, and most events were poorly supported.

The new committee agreed that we need to find a way to increase participation by members.

The evening bash was held at the Countryman, as the Aviator Bar had burned down. As there were not many people, we cancelled the band, but the evening was still very enjoyable.

The Awards:

Best XC - Dave Fentum
Best Flight - Adrian "Fluffy" Daish
Neptune Trophy - Geoff Underwood
Best Newcomer Award - David Evans
Most Improved Pilot - ? (Was this Dan??_

A new committee was formed.  Many thanks to the old committee!!!

New Committee:

Chair: Paul Street
Sec: Gordon Mucklow
Sites: Dave Fentum
Treasurer: John Bentley
Safety: Mike Rouse
Soc.Sec: Paddy Court
