1996 January 25th - Management Committee

Past presidents in order of seniority
Past secretaries and Match secretaries in order of years in office

112 Curlers and naebodies attended, and a profit of £341 realised.
The top table ( LtoR) : Malcolm Jones (Vice-Pres), Bill Young (President), Bill Fraser (Area 10 Rep), Leslie Ingram-Brown (RCCC President), Robert Craigie (Moray Prov.), Alister Asher (Match Sec), Alistair Adam (Secretary) and Graeme Govan (Jack Frost).
Changes n office-bearers and committee members were approved, including Malcolm Jones as President, Colin C Macgregor (Vice-president), Campbell Dickson (Secretary/Treasurer). Ali Asher agreed to continue as Match Secretary.
Noted in the match secretary's report ( and not appearing in the records of the Club trophies), were the following successes: Scott Cameron (skip of the WINNINING CUP at the annual outing, Graham Kerr for the Moray Superleague at Elgin, the Moray Province KO and subsequently the Area 10 KO, Bill Young for the Fochabers Bonspiel, and Alan Stanfield & Harold Forrester for the Maclean Pairs at Inverness.
Unfortunately most of the Minutes of Club meetings from now until the General Meeting in September 1997 are not in the Minute Book, apart from committee meetings held before and after the 1997 Dinner & Court, when the secretary provided detailed reports and recommendations for the organisation, running and review of the event. A thorough check and tidy up was made of two boxes of documents found in the Club's steel storage container, but without success.
