AGM May 2nd

At the AGM Laurie reported that the Players had a good year with Sue’s pantomime Snow White and the Seven Tradesmen, and Noel’s recent production of Surprise Package.

She thanked everyone who had helped or taken part in any or all of these and hoped that the year ahead was going to be a good one.

Liz produced the audited accounts which show a healthy bank balance although there are bills still due from Surprise Package.

The outgoing committee members are Sue McCrimmon and Frank Bruce. Suzanne has moved up into Sue’s position.

The new committee is;

Laurie Thomsett    Chairman

Suzanne Challinor    Vice Chairman

Liz Meanley    Treasurer

Val Pinkham    Secretary

Claire Carter   

Robin Spruce

Noel Spruce

John wing

Emily Greves

Helen Simmons

The Annual BBQ will be Sunday 15th July

 from 3.30pm onwards and as usual will be hosted by Robin and Noel in their garden. He tells us that his hole in the ground may be finished by then. I’m not sure what sort of hole in the ground he is referring to after watching the rehearsals for Surprise Package.
