Our AGM was held on November 20th in the Rochestown Park Hotel, Cork. The Board made a very difficult and regrettable decision to cancel the dinner dance this decision was very much mindfully made for the safety of all our members following continuous review of the increasing number of Covid infections along with the restrictions at that time.
