Committee roles – your club needs you

21 January 2023 - By Bill smythe

At the forthcoming AGM , we will be electing the new committee and will be looking for volunteers to join and help run your club.

Any member of the club can be elected to join the committee and you can put yourself forward for any role even if the current committee member has decided to continue. If you would like to put your name forward for a position on the committee this needs to be done either in writing prior to the AGM or verbally at the AGM to the club Secretary, Liz Stuckey.  You will need to ask a current member to propose you and another member will need to second you on the day. If you have any questions please speak to myself, Natalie Lilley or any other member of the committee.

A role on the committee is for one year until the next AGM with committee meetings held every 4-6 weeks.

Some of the committee will be standing again for their current roles and some will be standing down so we will need someone to fill those roles. We have also created a new role of Routes co-ordinator. This role will organise the pub runs, check routes are safe, new routes for Tuesday’s and occasional trail routes on a Sunday.
