UKPS Annual General Meeting 2008

*EVENT CANCELLED – POSTPONED UNTIL SATURDAY 3rd MAY, ELSWORTH, CAMBS*

We are pleased to invite members and non-members to our yearly AGM, which will take place this year in the village of Markyate in Hertfordshire. The meeting is a great opportunity for people to come, hear and see what the society has been doing over the past 12 months and its plans for the next year. All board positions are up for election this year. Voting will take place at the meeting.

While those who are not members may not vote – they can still make suggestions and see what opportunities exist to help the society out; There are plenty. Needing more volunteers is a must to meet the targets set for the next year.

We have arranged a number of pick-up points from the Midlands and from train stations around Markyate – so there is no excuse not to come along!

Drinks and sandwiches will be served throughout the event. Some good country pubs are in the area and we will give those a try after the AGM.

We apologise that the AGM has been delayed until April – but we feel that it was better to hold the AGM after the busy Easter period where travel is quicker and cheaper.

Travel Directions:

From the M1, exit at junction 9. At the roundabout take the exit sign posted A5 – Dunstable. Drive down the A5 ignoring any exit to Markyate until you reach a double set of traffic lights. Immediately after those traffic lights turn left into Markyate. At the first junction turn left into the High street and immediately right onto Cavendish Road. Travel up the hill and the village hall is located through a gate on your right.

If you intend to join us please email events at pyrosociety.org.uk so we can estimate numbers for refreshments. Members and non-members are welcome. Please quote your membership number if you are a member.

We hope to welcome you to the AGM.
