P. 5
Not agreed as this money would have to come from the clubs general fund
after receiving interest from the Memorial Fund and would leave the club
short of money.
There was a proposal from the meeting by Mark Ballamy and seconded by
Mike Peel that we donate the sum of £25000 and this is to come from the
clubs Memorial Fund. This was carried by 95% of those present. This now has
to be ratified by a second SGM which will be held on the 10 th April 2017.
When the notice of the meeting comes out I would ask all members to vote in
favour of this proposal, a postal/email vote will be allowed.
PS; I do know that a number of past and present members donated to HHVT
recent fund raising, if they are supporting then I think the club should.
I know that some members are against taking money from the Memorial Fund,
what is the point in just letting the Fund grow, lets make some use of it, the
club is desperate for members and if we do not get any the club would have
to close down. If this was to happen then the purpose of the fund would be
lost as it would pass on to other cycling organisation or charities. .
Sorry to hear that Derek Boon
is waiting to go into hospital for an
operation to remove a brain tumour.
Hope all goes well for you Derek
