CCS ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING; THIS WAS HELD ON 24 NOVEMBER

One or two committee member changes resulting from the meeting.
Brian Webber is retiring from the committee (not from time-keeping!) after half a lifetime of committee meetings and holding most positions in the club at one time or another. Andrew Hoppit feels like a rest from the hassle of audax organising and committee meetings, and might get out on his bike more! Thanks to them both.
Four brave souls put themselves forward to join the committee and were elected; Jonathan Weatherley, Ed Nevard, Steve Barnes, and Bob Bush; welcome to them. Ed Nevard, late of the Witham club, has taken the post of Audax Co-ordinator, and is also in future running his Woodham Walter audaxes under the CCS name. The remaining committee members were all re-elected to their existing roles.
