Morning all;

In order that we can get the voting papers out to members (and give those not attending the AGM a chance to return them by post) we are going to have to close nominations at 1pm on Friday 30th May - i.e. tomorrow lunchtime.

The Rockets & Space Event at the Royal Gunpowder Mills at Waltham Abbey have kindly extended to UKRA an invitation to hold our AGM at the event. This will be on Saturday the 21st of June.

In addition to the always riveting UKRA AGM the event includes rocket workshops, low power launches, talks, displays and, of course, Waltham Abbey's rather cool looking rocket exhibition!

Afternoon all;

As I am sure you are aware UKRA has, traditionally, held its Annual General Meeting at the same time as a national launch event, although last year we held both the UKRA launch and AGM in conjunction with Black Knights at their BK Flamer event.

After a number of years of very hard work by Charles Simpson on behalf of UKRA (for mid power and high power rocketry) the following represents the outcome.

The New HSE Certificates of Exemption

The new Certificates of Exemption were signed by the HSE on the 4th of December, 2007.

UKRA has now secured the services of a new mailbox facility.

From today all written correspondence should be sent to:

UKRA
105 Thomas Way
Lakesview International Business Park
Hersden

Mail sent here will be forwarded to us twice a week which will improve turn around.

UKRA is pleased to announce that it has co-opted a member to serve on Council for the remainder of the current term.

Richard Brown, of Corpulent Stump fame, kindly agreed to volunteer his services to bring the Council back up to full strength.
