2018 AGM - next Sunday, 25th November
The 2018 AGM will be held on Sunday 25th November at the Perdiswell Young People's Leisure Club, Droitwich Road, Worcester WR3 7SN, in room number Activity 5 (same venue as last year). Please note that this is not part of the Perdiswell Leisure Centre complex.
Turn off Droitwich Road between two prominent stone pillars opposite its junction with Checketts Lane. Follow the road round to the left, then left again.  The Young People's Club car park is opposite the skateboard track.

Please arrive from 09:30 for a 10:00 prompt start.

Subs payment at the AGM
As usual, it will be possible to pay your subs for 2019 immediately after the AGM, and all members are encouraged to pay at this time, if possible.  We don't yet know how much the subs will be (this will be decided at the AGM), so may I suggest that you bring one £20 note, one £10 note, one £5 note and four £1 coins. You will then be able to accommodate whatever fee is decided.  Please note that queuing priority will be given to those who have the correct money:-)
 

CLUB CAPS
A number of members have requested club caps.  These can't be ordered individually from the manufacturer because the machine takes too long to set up, so we have ordered a batch of about a dozen.  This will be enough to satisfy those who are waiting, and will also give us a few 'spares'.  So if you would like one please see Graham or Andrea Povey. There are still a few left!

DISINFECTING BOAT HULLS
In order to do our bit to prevent the possible transfer of blue-green algae from one site to another, please disinfect your boat hulls before and after you sail at any site.  Antibacterial wipes or spray will do the job, or alternatively a suitably diluted disinfectant solution (e.g. Dettol, or similar) in a pound-shop spray bottle, then wiped dry with kitchen roll would do the job admirably. Please note that this action is a requirement, not a request, so please come prepared!
