The meeting takes place on the 30th October 2010, with a Trustees and RC's meeting taking place on the 31st October. The venue for this year's meeting will be the same as last year at ChristChurch , Stourbridge (well Lye really). We have a very pleasant church and hall. There is free parking close by and the nearest rail station is only a 5 minute walk away.
A draft agenda will be placed here as soon as possible but we would appreciate your input on what you would like. We will have reports from the Trustees and raffle tickets.We are trying to obtain a speaker for part of the meeting. We may have to decide this years Christmas card designs online or by email as it may be too late to decide by the time this meeting has occurred.
Could all groups please register your interest for attending the meeting using this form. Even if you are not attending it would really help us if you could fill in the form to let us know.
