There are a number of cut-off dates before the AGM itself is held, for nominations to the Committee and for submission of items to be discussed at the AGM itself, so please do read the Calling Notice carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have any queries relating to the Calling Notice, please feel free to contact me directly on\u00a0mikebreewood@gmail.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s a sheet up in the shed for nominations for officers and committee members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Club captain Marianne adds:<\/strong> Do think about joining our Committee.\u00a0 The club cannot run without the time and effort that the Committee, and others, devotes to the club.\u00a0<\/span> With that said, thanks to Alan S, Louise, Douglas, Beth, Scott, Anne, John, Lesley and, of course Mike B, for all your help and support over the past year.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Events – lots to look forward to!<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Freshwater Sprints, Saturday 29 October<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the last event of the season where we take part in sprint races not as a club, but as part of South East region. It takes place on beautiful Loch Tummel, with Schiehallion looking down on proceedings. It’s a great social occasion and I’d recommend you think about taking part. Anne P will be co-ordinating the south east team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sign-up sheets are up in the Shed for all these events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oars – testing, testing<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We’re looking at replacing oars (though the current sets of oars will still be available to use).  As part of working out our requirements, we’ve borrowed a similar set from our friends at NQ. We want you to give them a try and note your thoughts on sheets provided on the noticeboard.  Thanks to everyone involved, particularly Douglas, Alan D and Louise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally…<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Mark and Douglas will be taking Ferry Maid off the water for an extended period of maintenance. This includes painting, which needs to be done before the colder weather sets in. Rachel has organised for seats to get some much-needed tlc, which we’re very grateful for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be kind to each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
