Annual General Meeting

Wednesday 13th November 2024, 7.30pm
Lavant Memorial Hall

All members are warmly encouraged to come to the AGM. The Society is run by the members for the members, so it is vital that members have their say.

After discussing reports on 2024 and hearing the plans for next year, members vote on the items listed in the agenda and for the election of the Society’s officers and committee.

After the close of the formal business, the meeting takes on a more sociable air, with the opportunity to chat with other members over complimentary refreshments.

If any members would like anything to be included in the AGM Agenda, they should notify the Secretary, Margaret Rhodes in writing by 16th October – click here:

Although other issues can be raised at the AGM itself, only those items that are on the Agenda can be put to the vote.

FOR OUR MEMBERS

Lavant Horticultural Society has a card that can be loaned to any LHS member that will entitle that member and one adult guest to a 50% reduction on the entry price to RHS Gardens.
Clearly, this could be very interesting for any of our members who are not themselves members of the RHS.

Annual Buffet Supper
Wednesday 10th July 2024

Some 60 members enjoyed this year’s Annual Buffet Supper.

The traditional”Bring and share” format produced a wide variety of tasty savoury dishes and salads. Members were also spoiled for choice by an excellent selection of mouth-watering deserts.

A taxing quiz added to the conversations around the tables.

Many thanks to Liz Hewitt for setting up a well balanced selection of food and to her and her team for organising the evening so well.

In all, a very enjoyable evening!
