Chairman: Mr Gwyn Thomas

Vice-Chair: Vacant

Treasurer:Mrs Julie Hicks

Both Gwyn Thomas and Phylip Jones spoke of the busy year that the Society had experienced during the last session and that they looked forward to an equally industrious year in 2010-11.

There was only one notice of motion which came from the Committee - "That Mair and Bob Norton become Life members". The motion was accepted without need of a vote.

Mair and Bob Norton - Life Members of the Society

Mair and Bob have been members of the History Society since its inception in 1983 and meetings have been held at their home for well over twenty years. Mair was also Treasurer of the Society for a decade. The Nortons were presented with a gift from the members ( picture to follow).

A full list of the lecture programme will be posted after our next meeting on Monday October 11th when our speaker will be Mr Glyn Rees of Pencoed and his subject will be "Celts and Romans".
