Malvern Challenge:
For next years event there will be a request for cash only for
bookings then a Building Society cheque will be raised for the entry.
Transport costs were a little high and volunteers for mini bus testing
will be sought so that Park House buses can be used.
It was suggested that bookings be started with deposits before
Christmas.
There were one or two problems with the site and entertainment which
will be addressed separately but the event was generally OK.
Thanks to Rob Deeming for booking the places for this years event
