The January AGM and supper was a great success with 63 members attending. Our Honorary President, the Lord Willoughby de Broke, chaired the business part of the meeting and received reports from the Treasurer and Chairman. The Chairman reflected on the achievements of the past 21 years of the group, and looked forward to a healthy future. Our President then conducted the elections of officers and committee members (click Committee on the menu to the right of the webpages to see the elected officers and committee). Supper was provided by Isobel Gill and her helpers and was much appreciated. Following the supper our President gave an entertaining talk outlining the work of the House of Lords, where he sits as one of the 90 hereditary peers. Ilona Sekacz then gave a fascinating 15 minute presentation, with music, of more than 200 photographs and interviews collected as part of the Kineton SnapshotProject in 2008. This represented a small part of the material collected and showed the range and potential of the project (click http://www.kinetonheritage.co.uk/kinetonsnapshot2008.htm for more information).
