Dear Fellow Members,

It is sad to note the passing of Mrs.PhyllisBacon, Beaumairs WI. Mrs.Bacon had served as a FederationVice-Chairman and a prominent member of the Crafts Sub-Committee.We sympathise with all her family and friends in their loss.

The WI’s will shortly receive theirFederation Raffle books, but we are making a special appeal thisyear for individuals to sell to friends and relations as this isour fund-raiser for our Royal Welsh Show Fund.

Remember, delegates, to report to your memberson the Annual Meeting, and will WI’s send in their opinionregarding the Carol Concert. Only three WI’s were notrepresented at the Annual Meeting - you missed a good meeting.

The successful Line Dancing afternoon organisedby the Eilian Group realised a profit of £150. Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

C.A.Jones
