Goldwings North West held its very first Annual General Meeting on the 31st January at the Leyland Hotel.
Not their usual meeting place as they had just celebrated their first anniversary the night before with an all inclusive Dinner Dance with free bar, and the package included late night fish & chips as well as a free Conference Room for the following day. Not a bad deal for only £34 each! Discounted accommodation for those who wanted it too.
The Meeting was well attended by Members and visitors GoldWings North Wales, plus a few visitors from other clubs or regions, who were most welcome. It was a joy to see the room so full.
The business of the Meeting included the presentation of a cheque for £500 to Ray Beech in aid of the North West Air Ambulance. This money had been raised by collections made at the various displays and events which the Club ran or attended during 2009.
New Officers were also elected for the coming year, Chairman Bob and Treasurer Pete having stood down altogether while Secretary Ian stood down from that Office to offer himself as Chairman, to which he was elected unopposed.
