As we are now close to getting into the new season, we have introduced some new venues. One of which is Boundary Park over the May Bank Holiday. As well as that a favourite of mine is the Whitley Village hall meet for St Patricks Day.

I want to thank each member of the Committee. I know the hard work that goes in, without their help and the help of the Stewards, meets would not be able to go ahead. So each person who has Stewarded a meet or has been on Committee I whole heartily thank you.

Steve has been brilliant as always keeping our books up to date, but over the last few months has worked tirelessly to get the new website up and running. So thanks Steve.

I was at the new venue for the North West Region Meet last year at the Longridge Show Ground. It was a great venue and it was great to see so many of you there, even if I was knocked out of the Kubb competition in the first round.
