Annual General Meeting 2009 The Annual General Meeting of the Fenland Orchid Society took place at the usual venue. Richard the Vice Chairman opened the meeting by paying tribute to the membership and the high quality of the show table. Remarking it had been a good year with some excellent speakers and a very good Annual Show he went on to give thanks to all those who had given of their time and helped in no small way to keep the society running smoothly. Comment was made of our now reinvigorated web site and he hoped more people would use it not only members but those on the world wide web who wished to know about orchids and us as a society. Funds were about the same as last year so the membership was informed that the annual fees would remain the same. The Christmas party had been a great success and David was thanked for his hard work in organising it and then running it. Richard had himself helped to promote the society by going out and giving talks on his visit to Peru. The main points of business concluded it fell to Richard along with his fellow committee members to resign and a new one be appointed. The main changes were that the position of Chairman was filled by David and that Marie Roach, David Sinclair and Mary Shailes were elected as members without office. Gillian Elsden took the appointment of show organiser, Jane stepping down. All appointments were with immediate effect. The meeting closed at 8.20pm to be followed by the plant auction and the tombola table.
