Events Listing
Welcome to Members of Heathrow.
We are coming to the end of another successful
year for the Branch, and I thank the officers for their work and
commitment. We have had some very enjoyable outings and
events and have picked up a few Trophies and Awards along the
way. At the Regional Council Assembly in September I was very
pleased to accept another one, this time for coming third in the
Stampede Competition. Also Joyce Marsh was presented with a
certificate for her work as Branch PRO. This is a new award
issued for the first time this year, so well done Joy and
congratulations from us all. Congratulations also go to Nana
Boakye-Ansah and Nicholas Howe, two of our younger members who were
awarded Forester Scholarships. It was a pleasure to meet them
and their parents at a recent Branch meeting when I presented them
with their certificates. We wish them well with their future
studies and chosen careers.
Delegates from the Branch attended the
Regional Council Assembly at Croydon and heard various reports on
events over the past four years. A moving memorial was held
in memory of loved ones who had passed away. We heard that a
staggering £740,000 has been raised for charity and saw some
snippets of the events that members arranged to raise this
money. A speaker, Mrs Kay, gave a very enjoyable talk on
Childhood Games evoking some happy memories for most of us.
After the Regional Council were duly elected, they were installed
by the International Fraternal President, Bernard Bloom. Our
congratulations go to Maureen MacGregor who was re-elected to the
Council and also elected as a representative to the International
Assembly next year.
I extend a warm welcome to all members who
have joined Heathrow Branch recently and hope that you will join us
at some of our events, you will be most welcome. To all our
members, I wish you a very Happy Christmas and a Healthy and
Peaceful New Year.
