Chairlady’s update

Hi Everyone

Back from hols and can now update you from our first meeting of the new Committee. One of the items we covered was the Rally Programme and would like to thank Ian Carter for his hard work of obtaining Chelmer Village High School again for some of our larger rallies, as the set up with large hall & kitchens allow us to run them more easily again.

In a few days we will be able to let everyone have more information about the Mainly Marshals being held in mid January, which I hope will appeal to members, just some last minute adjustments.

The Committee also asked me to find out from members what draws them to rallies so we might be able to tailor them more in the future. Such as four day rallies, if possible, so members can arrive on Thursday. Also, whether food is a large draw. Perhaps people can let me know their thoughts on Facebook.

Another matter raised was that it seems we have not had many photos added to the Members Photo Gallery because of the concern of GDPR which seems a shame. The matter was discussed and a way forward proposed, that when members paid their dues they simply signed if they did not want to appear in photos. However, we are trying to keep it simple and will discuss it again and check the rules.

See you soon and hope to see some of you on the Bonfire Rally.

Best Wishes

Beverley
