In his speech, chairman Peter Lewis thanked local businesses and sponsors who had supported the club over the year.
He added: “I’d like to thank the public and landowners who allow us to use their facilities. Thank you also to club members and supporters for pulling together and ensuring we have successful events in the area. Organising these rallying events isn’t an easy task, but with a hard working team, it all comes together. A special thank you must go to our club secretary Olwen Davies who has been in the role for over 30 years. Her house is our rally headquarters and as members, we are very grateful.”
