"In February of the year we became the 21st Club in the British Orienteering Federation to achieve Sport England's Club Mark Award. The gaining of the status required a huge amount of work. As your Chairman all I had do was sign the reams of paperwork but the person who dragged us through the labyrinth of technicalities and ensured that our assessors could find no fault was Judith Holt. And so it gives me great pleasure to ask the President to present the Salver to Judith." Chris Phillips Chair |
"Finally the Tiger Trophy awarded to a club member for outstanding services to the club over a number of years. I know that I am going to rather embarrass this years recipient as he is a member who likes to go quietly on in the background doing his chosen tasks - this despite the fact that he has held the to two highest profile jobs in the club - Club Captain and Chairman. For much of the last 10 years Simon Ford has been a the centre of the club, guiding its affairs as chairman and contributing in many different ways to our ability to develop and deliver our regular events programme. I suspect that Simon is not aware of how well he is respected within the club and how influential his views are. I hope that the awarding of the Tiger Trophy goes in some way to thank Simon for all his work and effort over the years - and of course for that which is still left to come." Chris Phillips Chair |
