Important diary dates
1. Club Assembly 6pm, Wednesday 15th. June
2. District Conference 30th. September to 2nd October

Would like as many as possible to attend each event.

Club Assembly is an opportunity to learn more about our clubs activities for the year, to review the plans, propose other actives and general coordination of the committees for the year.

Most of you will have been at previous district conferences and the club of Newbridge are promising an exiting weekend at the Keadeen Hotel. The partners programme sounds even better.  Want to try and co-ordinate our attendance and will be sending out expressions of interest next week.  Unfortunately the main hotel is fully booked and I would like us all to be at the same hotel.

See details below of new committees.

Sorry for length of this email.  Want to keep you all up to date.  It is always difficult for all members to attend but at lest we can let let everyone know about what is happening by regular emails.

Plan to update the previous clubs newsletter "The Hub" in an electronic form.  The Hub was discontinued at least 5 years ago and I first came accross at our 50th Gala. Interestingly the Mid Argyll people showed me copies of The Hub when David and I were over there including some fantastic pictures of many or you.

Appreciate feedback from all.
