Christchurch & District Model Flying Club Minutes of Annual General Meeting Held at the Walkford Hotel 3rd December 2008 20 members attended with apologies received from S Fell, P Poll, K Young. Secretary’s Report – During the past year the committee has held 13 committee meetings concerning the running of the Club. Treasurers Report – Our financial position is fairly good and we have current funds of £2809.38 with Lloyds Bank. The main items of expenditure:- Indoor flying, Sloping Off, Xmas prize draw, Dorset Federation subscription, Christchurch Sports Council contribution. This shows an overall increase in funds of 358.95 but this does not include the £400 for the Indoor Flying sessions. So the club is in a static financial position. Therefore, I recommend an increase in Club Fees from £5 to £10 as agreed at the March 2007 AGM. Membership Secretary’s Report – Our current membership stands at 83 members but this could change in the new year with members dropping out for various reasons, and new members joining. Activities Secretary’s Report – The main activity this year being the Hordle Fete which we will be continuing next year and would like to see more members assisting – showing we are a part of the local community. Webmaster/ Editor – Requested more items from members for inclusion in ‘Sloping Off’ and Website. He will re-write / edit them if you wish but please send something in. Chairmans Report – We have had more talks etc this year especially Stuart Fell’s magic show which was enthusiastically received. Can other members give talks etc, if so contact the committee. A full review will be published on the website. Election of committee Officers – The existing committee including the Webmaster/Editor were all willing to stand for re-election and with no other nominations received were re-elected on masse. Proposer – B Brockway. Seconder – I Wettstein. Auditors – Clive Spencer and Gordon Coy volunteered to act as auditors for 2009. Motions – No motions were received prior to the meeting. Membership Fees – Fees were agreed at the 2007 AGM for a 3 year period. 2009 Club membership fee is £10 (adult) and £5 for 18 years of age or younger OR full time education until 21 years of age.
