A seat for a former WCMC club member who sadly passed away in 97-98?, has asked to be moved by his mother. The seat has been fenced off and his mother has asked if it could be moved to either Wordsworth Court or the Bowling Club. The club has no qualms with this happening but has asked that permission being granted for it to be moved to either, be obtained before this happens. Russell is to consult with the members who knew him more to see their views.
The Blood Bike night which the club will host, try to get publicity for it and get people through the door on the night.
