As it was our AGM rally we had 11 vans on site for the weekend which is a very good turnout. May be that is because all the positions on the committee were settled well before the meeting and there was no fear of being coerced onto the committee.
Early Arrivals
4 vans arrived on Thursday just because they could and made a very long weekend of it. The rest arrive over the course of the Friday with one arriving on Saturday morning.
The weather over the weekend was a mixture of cloudy, rain but little wind. The one constant was that the bite of winter made itself present so there was no sitting outside in the sun.
Friday night we had the customary evening meal at the Foxton Beach Bowling Club, which is simple fare but excellent value for money and is always a good well cooked meal. Not to be missed.
Ordering Friday Nights Meal
Not Bad Eh!
Saturday immediately after Morning Tea we held the AGM and the following officers were elected:
President: Selwyn Fisk
Vice President: Barry Richmond
Secretary: Cath Fisk
Treasurer: Val Solomon
Webmaster: Robin Benton
Committee: Dennis Wyle, Dianne Richmond.
AGM in Session and very serious
Saturday night we joined with MCC for a pot luck meal which was a good way of meeting some of the MCC members we had not met previously.
Sunday dawned wet so a walk on the beach was not on, and we all did our own entertaining by inter-vanning and visiting local cafes etc. That night the Heretaunga Club conduced a Housie evening for the whole camp and there was a good turnout from both clubs for this. It was noticed that mathematical skills were severely tested when trying to decide what value to put on line and house prizes (outside help was requested I believe).
Trying to Determine a Winner in the Housie
Come Monday morning with the weather still inclement all decided to head for home apart from two hardy souls who stayed on for another night.
A good rally and a non eventful AGM.
See you at the next rally. REMEMBER CHANGE OF VENUE:
6-8 July, LEVIN HOLIDAY PARK, Parker Ave, Levin
