December News!


Annual General Meeting, on 6th January, 2020, at the ‘Inn on The Green’, Coddington.

Refreshments from 7:00 - Meeting starts at 7:30.


We start back Training on 13th January at the Showground, but in a new place – the John Eastwood Building


Turn left when you come in the main gate and it is the set of low buildings on your right. You can park on the front of them. The really good news is that this building is not as much in use by other events as our current one so we will not lose as many dates. For example, we will have most of the training days in July and only lose one session in August! This is great news.


Looking forward to seeing lots of you back in the new year.

An apology - well, lots of apologies . . .

From the newsletter editor:

"A thousand apologies. September might have arrived but I'm mentally still in the middle of August!!! I have not done our monthly newsletter yet. I will try and get it done over the next couple of days and send it to those on my email list. Most important thing to remember is we are back training at the showground - usual times - usual places.I will let you know on here and on the Facebook page if there are any changes, so please keep checking."

And talking of the Showground - we're back!  See you there?
