Chairman’s Report to NC Feb 2008
Hi all, personally its been a very hectic time for me this winter with a school review taking place, followed by and Ofsted inspection. All went well, so the powers that be will leave us alone for another 4 years thank goodness.
On the MAG front I attended the North West AGM followed by Blackpool MAG’s Christmas party. The meeting was well supported and much active debate took place. The party was an absolute cracker – I didn’t realize it was fancy dress so I was severely over dressed in jeans and a T shirt. Make a note if you’re thinking of attending next year.
I spent quite a deal of time supporting Janet and Trevor in the office reviewing C.V’s and applications for positions in the office.
This continued with liaison with the Foundation and Justine Travis following the resignation of Sarah Gardner.
This year, due to the end old greed of land owners, we lost the site of the Yorkshire Pudding Rally. We just couldn’t afford to pay the £3000 pound increase for use of the site. I worked with Neil Stevenson and others looking at 6 other sites and we feel we have found another, which importantly has the same character and atmosphere on site.
The training weekends are set to go. The Southern one is completely full. There are still some places on the Northern sessions, so please contact Central if you are interested.
AGC preparations are going on behind the scenes.
Website developments – both the main site and changes to Regional and other websites to mirror this are taking pace.
Finally, watch out for more information on an offer for free mortgage arrangements and re mortgaging. Yes, free to MAG members.
Spring is nearly upon us.
Hoorah!
