Dear All,
We have to change the venue for the AGM on Tuesday 26th November. (at 7.30 pm). The meeting room at the Knavesmire was taken for the snooker table earlier this year; and on 26th, the back room will be in use by the ukulele group.
An alternative private room has been secured (for free) at the Heworth Inn 64 Heworth Green, YO31 7TQ. This location is about 850 metres outside Monk Bar and so it can be reached on foot or bicycle from many areas of the city. For those coming further, there is a small car park at the rear (down Cinder Lane) and some on-street parking in the locality. There is unrestricted parking on Stockton Lane 300 metres from the pub. (Opposite side to the Stray).
Please support the AGM with a good turn-out and please arrive in time to buy your drink and be seated for a 7.30 start.
To any mountaineers who are also ukulele players, I can only apologise for the dilemma. Please see me privately and I will face the music.

WHAT ? At the AGM on 26 November (Heworth Inn, 7.30) you need to fill 2 Committee positions. Andrew Mirelman has moved abroad and Linda is stepping down.
HOW MUCH BOTHER ? Not a lot. Three Committee meetings in a year, plus email discussions. One post is “Welfare Officer” and the other is to organise a couple of weekend events. Details can be discussed with any current Committee Member. (Linda, Penny, Phil, Nick, Steve M, John, Andrew)
WHO SHOULD DO THIS ? Any Member can put her/his name forward for election at the AGM. It’s a good thing if the Committee represents the spectrum of interests and ages across the Club.
WHY MAKE THE EFFORT ? We all benefit from being a Club. (Or else we wouldn’t join). A modest amount of organising just keeps the wheels rolling. Everybody should share this and take their turn at it.
SMALL PRINT. Nominations must be seconded by two other Members and must reach the Secretary Nick Outram by Tuesday 12 November. All the Committee will be up for re-election at the AGM so you can nominate for any post (Chair / Vice /Treasurer /Club Secretary / Membership Sec / Events 1 / Events 2 / Welfare) but you need in particular to fill the 2 vacant positions. Voting is by those Members present in person at the AGM. I plan to use a confidential voting system in any case of there being more than one nomination.
PHEW !! I’ve taken a liberty to send this out whilst our Secretary Nick Outram is away on holiday. (owing to timescales). Let’s give Nick a nice present of a couple of nominations for when he gets back. !!

Rollup, Roll up.
This is just a quick reminder about next Tuesday 26th November.
What ??
Well, the big red asterisk in your diaries is because of the York MC AGM in the Heworth Inn. We had a massive turn-out for the pizza night last week, will the AGM be equally popular ? I hope so.
Please buy your drink and be seated for a start at 7.30see you there
