The inaugural meeting of the
Tyneside Sub-Centre was held on Tuesday 19th March 2003 at the Backworth
Golf Club. (See Sub Centre page for
directions.)
The meeting was well attending with
enthusiastic members from as far afield as Wooler and South Teeside. A
lively discussion in the pleasant surroundings of the Golf Club paved
the way to establishing how best to develop the Sub Centre. An
unfortunate date clash with a crucial Newcastle United match resulted in
a number of absentees who sent their apologies.
With the MG Club meeting at the same
venue also on the third Wednesday of each month, this made for a degree
of inter club camaraderie as the evening progressed and hopefully some
inter club rivalry at events in the future.
Attending members agreed unanimously
that the venue was excellent and agreed that we should continue to meet
here for at least the next three months. (The remarkably low beer prices
also had some influence upon this decision.)
Many thanks go to John
Stanger-Leathes for his enthusiasm in setting up this new Sub Centre.
The inaugural meeting was also attended by Northern Centre committee
representative, Mike Smith. |
