CHAIRMANS PITCH

Welcome to the 2019 camping season.

2018 was another good year for LCDA with lots of meets on

and good numbers. The THSs were also well attended. Thanks

go to all the Stewards, The Committee and all the other Non-

Committee helpers, because without these people the meets

would not happen and be as successful.

Each year we strive to improve on the previous year and try

new things, sometimes with success and sometimes not. Every

DA is reporting that numbers are down in general but I would

like to think Lancs and Ches do a good job encouraging and

keeping new members.

In the last few years we have been trying new sites and longer

meets, which I think have all been successful. Our Midsummer

meet was a great success making it into a 4 day meet and the

feedback has been very positive from lots of new people to

the DA and many have said they can’t wait to come out with

us again.

Hopefully see you out in the field sometime in 2019.
