Alan Yates proposed that we have a track secretary to which<br />

Clive Last added that if this was for those members who make a<br />

habit of running on railway lines then Chris Stamp was the ideal<br />

candidate. However, no candidate stepped forward.<br />

8. Club Championships<br />

Tim Tett and Bob Berzins each proposed a new format. Tim's<br />

was that there should be 4-6 permanent courses and that on the<br />

morning of the race the actual course to be run that day would be<br />

drawn out of a hat. This would reduce the impact on Kinder of club<br />

members running the same course over and over, as was the case<br />

with the original format, and that it would reduce the requirement<br />

for navigational abilities similar to orienteering as every member<br />

would have the opportunity to recce the courses.<br />

Bob's proposal was that the club champion would be decided<br />

over a series of 6 races with 4 to count, throughout the year,<br />

culminating in the club champs which would continue in the same<br />

format as last year. The six proposed races were Alport, Holme<br />

Moss, Crookstone, Dungworth, Shelf Moor and the Club Champs.<br />

After lengthly discussion both were rejected. Bob's format<br />

did not give all members an equal chance as the membership is<br />

widespread and we already have a similar 'league' system with Mike<br />

Pedley's 'Local Race League' award. A proposal from Graham Berry<br />

that Mike's and Bob's ideas be combined was also defeated.<br />

Pete Dyke will organise next years race in the same format.<br />

9. Any other business<br />

Skyline : The organisation of the race was discussed and it was<br />

decided that to make life easier for future organisers the club<br />

should make some effort to formalise arrangements. It was decided<br />

to gather all relevant information from previous organisers and<br />

produce an Organisers file. A meeting was arranged on 5th June to<br />

get this process in motion.<br />

Club Socks : A proposal was received from Dave Holmes that club<br />

socks should be fluorescent pink.<br />

Worsell Trophy : The Worse 11 trophy, which was presented to the<br />

Club at last years AGM by Phil the owner of the Cafe, was awarded<br />

to Frank Galbraith, well it was actually awarded to his wife as<br />

Frank was getting pissed on a pub crawl in Sheffield. The grounds<br />

for its presentation and something along the lines of "most<br />

outstanding acheivement on the fells". Candidates for this years<br />

award included Colin Henson for his Bob Graham success and Bob<br />

Berzins for his solo unsupported Ramsey Round. Frank was awarded<br />

the trophy for his Bob Graham attempts against all the odds, his<br />

15 trigs success and his all round contribution to the club.<br />

The meeting closed at 22.38. Next AGM: 3rd Wednesday in April 1992<br />
