Meetings
NEW SEASON – Our first meeting of the new season was well supported with our new members taking the plunge, but if you didn’t make it please ensure you contact Chris Hamshaw in order to pay your fees to enable you to enter competitions. It’s £20 up until the new year and if we are still clear of Covid restrictions and meeting physically, another £15 in the new year.
Last night’s meeting was a meet and greet and most importantly it was our Awards presentation, so once again congratulations to all the winners and runners up. Special thanks to Mandy and Victor for getting all the quality certificates to the correct people !
Next week will be a Q & A session on any subject so have your questions ready!!
PCC 2021-2022 Programmes are now available and can be obtained from Victor.
