Maggi Young:
From the  Treasurer:

--- Quote from: Richard Green on December 16, 2020, 04:55:09 PM ---The SRGC Annual General Meeting was originally due to take place in November 2020.  However, in view of government restrictions arising from the Covid-19 pandemic, it was postponed to take place at the Early Bulb Day at Dunblane on Saturday 21 February 2021.

It is now becoming more likely that there may still be restrictions on travel and gatherings in February.  The latest details will be given in the January Dryas which is planned to be posted out to all members in late January 2021.  However, plans may still need to be changed, possibly at very short notice.  This may include a decision to hold the AGM online, and changes in the voting arrangements. 

If details change, then further information will be given here in this thread:  https://www.srgc.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=18240.0
