July Newsletter

Extra-Ordinary Executive Committee Meeting - 29 June 2019

 
The Committee would like to thank all members that sent in offers of help.  A number have now been allocated an administrative role within the Society.   We shall be contacting the remainder over the next few weeks as we match skills and experience to our current vacancies.   Diolch yn fawr - your help is much appreciated.  

However we are still looking for volunteers to come forward to replace our Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer at the next Annual General Meeting in February 2020.  If you did not receive the letter and feedback form it is not too late to send in your comments and offers of help.  The letter and form was sent with your June journal and can be downloaded from the website.
 
Letter from the Executive Committee
 
Job descriptions for current vacancies are available on our website - you do not need to log in to view.  

A fuller Meeting Report will be available in the September journal.   The Executive Committee has prioritised a range of strategies to deal with the problems that will arise if no volunteers for Society Officers are forthcoming over the next six months and we shall advise members of our progress in each journal and by newsletter/email.
Deadline for September Journal - 20 July
Theme 'Migration to Glamorgan'
 
The closing date for the submission of articles, images, news items, reports, Help Wanted etc is 20 July.  We are sure many of your ancestors migrated to Glamorgan so there must be some fascinating stores out there.
 
Please send any material to the Editor by the closing date:
