Annual General Meeting - 13th May 2025
At our AGM a number of important changes took place.
Phil Webber who has been our chairperson for the last 23 years was replaced Gwen Postlethwaite. Gwen has a lot of experience with TOG and spent some 27 years with us as club leader before stepping down in October 2012.
Barry King, our vice chairperson, and Julia Simpson, our club secretary also resigned from their posts. Helen Magee, a former deputy leader, was elected as secretary and three vice chairs were elected at the Committee Meeting in July. They are Lisa Day, Peter Gammons and Gweneth Smith.
The retiring officers were thanked for their tireless efforts in supporting the club over many years.
