Dear members

Our Society will have its 57th AGM on the Saturday 2nd April at Four Seasons Hotel.

As we will be conducting our wine distribution exercise, I feel that 2nd April being a Saturday will be more convenient for those members not attending the AGM to come pick up their wine.

This being a departure from our usual AGM month of March, I hope members will understand and have no objection.

2022 Events
The committee and I will be targeting more in-person events hopefully from April onwards. We hope to break free of 2020/2021 bad memories to try to schedule 5 to 8 events for the rest of this year. Perhaps even to present some events with wine makers in person and not zoom. We will innovate to arrange these in-person events. I look forward to seeing you in person in the coming months and hope to unmask a more vibrant 2022 schedule.

I thank all members for your patience, understanding and continual support.

As resolved at the last AGM on 25th March 2021, the society has approved the allocation of 1 bottle of wine to each member. The details of the wines to be distributed were disclosed and discussed then. Please refer to the AGM meeting minutes, if needed.

Important to Note:
The distribution of the bottle will take place alongside the 57th AGM event.

If you are not attending the AGM/Dinner, please come to the said AGM venue between 2pm to 6pm on 2nd Apr 2022 to collect your bottle.

It is important to note that this is a one-time exercise as cost and regulations do not permit us much leeway.

To help with the logistics for 2nd Apr 2022, please complete and return to me the wine collection reservation form (as included in the Menu and Booking form) by 25th March.

Do note for those who choose not to collect the wine on 2nd Apr 2022, your allocation is forfeited.

Please find attached the following
1) Notice of AGM
2) Agenda and minutes of the 2021 AGM
3) Menu and booking form + Wine collection reservation

In line with the health measures, seating capacity will be limited to 50 pax.

Please observe all social distancing rules and limit contact within your own table.
