May activities – first Business Meeting & Bakery Visit

Presidents Maggie & Jane successfully navigated their way through their first meeting. Outgoing President Liz was presented with her past Presidents badge. A collection was made for the SIGBI Emergency relief fund for use in Nepal and a staggering £650 was donated by members at that meeting. Members voted to donate £100 to local girl Caitlin Burnett a 15 yr old promising cricketer. The money will go towards her participation in a forthcoming cricket tour of South Africa. The social meeting was a visit to the new Academy in Pool, the brainchild of Portreath Baker Marion Symonds. Marion is an inspiration woman, she told us her story and her involvement with Mexico and the pasty link.
