The National AGM was held at the CBSO Concert Hall, just behind the Crowne Plaza Hotel. A large contingent of Shirley Late Knights were there to support Barry into the National Presidency!
Further activities attended were the Thursday night Welcome Party in the magnificent Council House, the Friday Night Presidents' Ball, and the Final Night Fancy Dress Hoe Down, both of which were held at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground in their new Conference suite.
