Annual General Meeting

 

 

Frome & District Pistol Club Ltd - Annual General Meeting

​

The next Annual General Meeting of the Frome & District Pistol Club is to be held at the Standerwick Suite, Frome Market, on the 20th of February 2020. (address below)

 

The meeting starts at 7:30pm. The doors and bar will be open from 7pm.

 

The location and format is the same as in previous years and as usual there will be a break for a buffet meal halfway through proceedings.

 

This is also your opportunity to submit motions for discussion at the meeting.

Some notes regarding motions:

• There is a deadline for submitting motions for circulation to the membership – 14 days before the AGM.

• Only FULL members can propose (and second) motions.

• Any proposal will be considered, but please try to make sure you can provide a robust and rational supporting argument.

• Also consider that, as the club membership is growing, that your proposals are for the general improvement of the club, inclusive and not to the detriment of any particular shooting activity.

 

Please note:

The status of the full bore shooting limitations, currently imposed on the 50m range at Anglo, is presently under review with the intention of implementing a working solution before the AGM. Any motions regarding full bore shooting or zeroing of such FB rifles on the 50m range will need to be distinct from this issue to be considered as a valid motion.

 

For those who have never been to the Standerwick Suite the address is:

              

              The Agricultural Centre Frome Market,

               Frome

               BA11 2QB

 

So to underline this, the 2020 AGM is the best occasion to have your say or voice your concerns over the running of your club. So please take the time, if possible, to attend and make a difference to the future of the FDPC.

 

Best regards,  

Anthony French
