First event of 2020

A successful first meeting of 2020 last night, and I think fair to say a good night was had by all 17 of us, lots of laughs and as usual, some questionable chat, all good fun. Couple of new faces which was great, hopefully many more to come. Thank you to our star events team, Terry and Marilyn for choosing a great place and arranging.

Just a couple of reminders; Firstly, the usual “Last Tuesday of the month” Regional meeting at The Mercat Bar & Grill has been cancelled for Tuesday March 31st as the Richard West evening is the following day, which has now become our meeting for March (even though its Wednesday the 1st April). Marilyn will be sending out an e-mail later on which will cover the members who are not on Facebook.

Secondly, a few people brought up the events which I have posted on the events section of the Facebook page, and have found them useful, which is great. But could I remind everyone that if they wish to attend any events, they must still inform Terry and Marilyn direct, just so that we can be sure that you and your car(s) are booked in for the events, and they have accurate numbers. Terry and Marilyn should always be first port of call for reserving your space, and if you can update Facebook events thereafter, that’s great, visible attendance numbers on Facebook will hopefully encourage others to join in. We just don’t want anyone to miss out.

The Facebook page is getting good feedback, excellent news, and we hope that it can help us build on more members for the region on top of the existing group of great members we already have. The page is not restricted for posting, so we encourage people to interact, take lots of photos of what they are getting up to, events, and promote the good stuff they do.

Finally, there are some people on Facebook who are not members, but are friends of those of us who are. It would be great to have you with us, so if you are interested in becoming a member of the JEC, and more directly, our Region (if you stay in Edinburgh/South East of Scotland), please get in touch with Rob Jenner who will be delighted to assist. We allow one attendance of an event free of charge, but then ask if you want to join subsequent events that you join up to the JEC and the Region. This is because our membership money pays entry in to events, so it just keeps it fair for everyone who has paid.

As always, any questions, please do get in touch!

Thanks

Paul
