Just a brief reminder - the first races of the inshore series take place this weekend at Hartlepool.

| 2012-11-30 | Hi Again
Appologies for the delay in sorting out the problems with news and photos. Hopefully the site is now working correctly again! What has happened since the last post? The AGM, Prizegiving and Open Meeting have been held. Minutes are posted on the site. There is also a collection of photos in the photo gallery. Over the next few weeks I intend to update the site a little. One alteration will be to dd the facility for crew members to join the database and receive e-mails. I also intend to check out e-mail addresses that i have, as some people appear not to be receiving bulk e-mails. Please bear with me if you get some test posting from the site - it is the only way i can confirm what is actually happening. Larry |

The minutes of the new committee's first meeting have been posted. A draft programme for 2009 has been proposed and is in the minutes. |
| 2008-11-08 | The 2008 AGM was adjourned - there were no nominations for Chairman or Treasurer although we have a new Secretary.

The minutes of the adjourned meeting have been posted.
Both the Prizegiving and adjourned AGM will be held at 8pm on Wednesday 3 December at THYC. A free buffet will follow the meetings. There will only be one item on the agenda of the re-convened AGM- Can NECRA continue as an organisation without a management committee? If you have any interest in NECRA continuing to function as a viable organisation, then this is your last chance to make your views heard. Notice of the meeting will be sent to all names on the NECRA database. Obviously the meeting is open to ANYONE interested in NECRA. |
