LATE NEWS
PROBUS AGM
Our AGM will be held at the New Inn, Brynhoffnant,at 11.15 am on the 23rd May. This will be followed by lunch at 12.30 (£10 for two courses).
If you want to put any matters on the agenda for the AGM, including any changes to the Constitution, details have to be given to all members no less than three weeks ahead. To achieve this any items you would like to be discussed or voted on must be in the hands of our Secretary, Barry Greenfield at or before our next meeting on the 25th April.
See Programme page for details of the AGM.
The Carpenters’ Arms is on the A484 Cardigan to Newcastle Emlyn road, about 100 yards up the hill from the north end of Llechryd Bridge. A car park is available.
Following extensive discussions by members about the best way of handling the questions of improving the social side of meetings and the attendance of ladies, the committee has decided to try replacing the custom of marking particular meetings with a “Ladies welcome” symbol and adopting a rule that members may bring a guest to any meeting apart from the “business” sessions, the August “Members” meeting and the AGM. This could result in fewer ladies attending, as they would only go to the talks in which they have a specific interest, and it might help in recruiting new members. The rule will be reviewed, probably at the AGM, when we have some experience of how it is working.
Due to changes to our meeting room in Hammet House we can no longer meet there. Our September meeting was held at the Carpenters’ Arms hotel in Llechryd. This seems to have gone down well, with many members staying for lunch or drinks. We shall continue to meet here when appropriate to see how things go until the matter is reviewed at the AGM.
