Due to Covid-19 restrictions in place in November 2020, the Romsey & Lancefield Districts Historical Society were unable to hold their 2019-20 Annual General Meeting. With the agreement of Consumer Affairs Victoria the meeting was therefore postponed until March 2021. We have decided to try something new this year and to hold our Annual General Meeting on a Sunday afternoon instead of a Tuesday evening as we have done for many years. We are inviting Members, and especially NEW MEMBERS, to come and visit the Courthouse, have a tour of the Courthouse and Lockup and see a display of some of our Archives and Artefacts. The format for 14 March 2021 will be:
2.00 pm Arrive and enjoy a tour of the Courthouse and Lock-up; Afternoon Tea and socialising;
3.00 pm Annual General Meeting
The President, Noreen Yorke will report on our 2020 activities; the Secretary, Shirley Kishere will report on Courthouse matters, and the Acting Treasurer will report on the Society’s finances. Nominations for Executive and Committee positions have been called and these elections will take place at the AGM on 14 March. Refreshments will be served.
For catering and seating purposes, please advise Shirley Kishere by email (lancefieldcourthouse@gmail.com) or phone (0402 248 540) by Friday 12 March of your intention to attend our Annual General Meeting and Tour.
