ATTENDANCE
17 persons attended and apologies were made on behalf of various others.
MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS AGM
The minutes of the previous AGM held on 1st February 2008 were approved.
TREASURERS REPORT
Details of the current finances of the club were circulated by the acting treasurer, Jim Wyllie, showing that we had incurred as substantial loss on meets during 2008.
Everyone agreed that steps should be taken to improve the position through our finances were still reasonably viable. Suggestions to either increase membership fee or the bed night costs were mooted. After considerable discussion the compromise proposal by John Meechan to charge £6 per night for hut and hall fees and £15 for membership was carried by a majority.
MEET REPORT
As Graham Wyllie, the meet secretary, was unable to attend there was no full report. The meets list up until September was circulated to those present. John Kirkham proposed that no further meets (after the Skye meet in May) should be held at the bunkhouses as this might incur looses to the clubs finances. This motion was carried.
ELECTION OF OFFICE BEARERS
Jim Wyllie indicated that he did not wish to stand again as secretary while Joe Seath indicated the same as treasurer. It was also likely that Graham Wyllie would soon hopefully gain entry to the RAF and accordingly would be unable to continue as meet secretary.
Thereafter the following were appointed to the vacant positions:
Secretary Stephen Gilfeather
Meet Secretary Jake Brewster
Treasurer Davie Paterson
3 other committee members – Martin Dand, Allan Duncan, John Blackwood.
FEES
The meet secretary would still receive £50 plus membership for the M.C of S. Stevie Gilfeather indicated that he would get a typist at his work to do the necessary typing without cost to the club.
ANY OTHER BUSINESS
It was unanimously agrees that the secretary should receive an advance of £50 to cover postages and other ancillary costs for the year.
