You think AGMs are boring? You’ve never been to a DMC AGM! It started with a slideshow of the last 12 month’s activities, a brilliant (and funny!) recap of what we’ve been up to. The current committee then explained meets, costs, and a summary of the recent survey of members. The members then voted for some new committee members – we say a big thanks to Greg and Katrina who are stepping down, and also to Ruth, Heinke and Elena who are new to the committee. After the formalities a fabulous feast, a chance to chat, and vote in the photograph competition.
