It’s been two years since my last Chairman’s Report usually posted before an AGM.
Since the last report, things have plodded along nicely.
The platform for GTOUK and the automatic registration, both run by outside sources was one of the best things we invested in.
Before this was implemented it meant a major amount of work for the Secretary and Treasurer.
I would also like to thank our main Sponsors/Traders for their continued confidence in GTOUK.

Member Subscription along with Sponsor/Trader fees cover our initial outgoings for our unique platform.
Yes, we could run our Club on Facebook, but that comes at a cost, organising events, social media disputes/monitoring controlled content.
What we have, as I’ve said many times is, a unique Club run with a Constitution by you the members. The Committee is voted by YOU at an AGM.
Looking at the numbers going to this years AGM they are very low, which is disappointing. I have also noticed a drastic drop in weekend meets, saying that, day meets are up and stable.
The forum has been great with interaction flowing all year round and still remains a great source of knowledge and banter.
As Chairman my role is to help the Club, it’s Members and hopefully keep things running smoothly.
I feel lucky and privileged to have helped this Club get to where it is now, walking into the role of the Committee is not as daunting with the things we now have in place .
Where I’m going with this now is personal to me only, being a Committee Member, Club Secretary and now Chairman for all these years I feel that maybe, the Club needs new inspiration.
