In closing this brief summary on <strong>the</strong> first three years of <strong>the</strong> Scottish National Racing Pigeon Club’s success. It is obvious it could not be possible without <strong>the</strong> members but especially <strong>the</strong> members who helped form <strong>the</strong> club in <strong>the</strong> beginning and <strong>the</strong> members who have served on <strong>the</strong> committee to-date. It is without doubt that each and every one have given <strong>the</strong>ir time and expertise freely and only ever in <strong>the</strong> interests of <strong>the</strong> SNRPC, its members, racing pigeons in general and <strong>the</strong> future of our recreation. May I remind our members that <strong>the</strong> AGM is on Saturday <strong>the</strong> 9 th of February 2008 at 12noon in <strong>the</strong> Newbridge Bowling Club if you are genuine in seeing <strong>the</strong> SNRPC successfully move forward please be present. The President <strong>the</strong> secretary and <strong>the</strong> committee wish all our members a very successful healthy and prosperous New Year.
