Annual General Meeting
The EAF AGM took place on Sunday 7th March 2010 at the Latton Bush Centre, Harlow. The agenda had been previously circulated to all clubs. The highlights of the event included the customary reports and the installation of Malcolm Tinn as President (see article above). For the first time, there was a report from the Webmaster - David Steel has now taken over this role from Tony Sweet and as he is also a member of the Executive Committee, it was appropriate that he should take the floor and describe some of the new changes brought about by the new Web site.
