IRTS 75th Annual General Meeting

Arrangements are well in hand for the Irish Radio Transmitters Society's 75th Annual General Meeting to be held at the Vienna Woods Hotel in Cork on Sunday April 22nd.

The weekend celebrations will follow the usual format with the 75th Jubilee Dinner being held on the Saturday night. Tickets prices have been maintained at last year's level and are great value at only 30 Euro.

Several high profile international guests will attend the dinner and AGM and included are Dave Sumner K1ZZ,
Secretary of the International Amateur Radio Union and
C.E.O. of the ARRL, the American National Society.
Also joining us will be the Chairman of Region 1 IARU Ole
Garpestad LA2RR and the Presidents of several other sister national societies in Region 1.

All the rooms at the Vienna Woods Hotel have been reserved and there are still a few available and these must be booked through Dave EI4BZ. For those not wishing to stay at the Vienna Woods Hotel, there is an IBIS Hotel very near the venue and the rates there are 82 Euro for a double room and 60 Euro for a single room. Bookings should be made directly with the IBIS Hotel on 021-4354354.
If anybody needs a B & B or Hostel organised, contact Dave EI4BZ on 087-6290574.

The Committee is obliged by rule to nominate members for the positions of President, Vice President and eleven committee positions. These nominations will be carried in the upcoming issue of Echo Ireland. This does not preclude other nominations for any of the positions and further nominations must be made to the Secretary within fourteen days of receiving the committee’s lists of nominations. Members should read rule 23 covering nominations for office.

The Society has several awards for honouring members who have excelled in some aspect of the hobby. Nominations for these awards are now being sought and should be forwarded to the Awards Manager, Peter Grant EI4HX. Members in possession of trophies since last year's AGM are requested to arrange for their return to EI4HX or any committee member as soon as possible.

The AGM rally will be held on Sunday April 22nd at the
Vienna Woods Hotel and requests for tables should be
directed to Dave EI4BZ on 087-6290574. There will be no
charge for tables, which will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
