Wednesday 21 June – Drama Club Revue Meeting following (brief) AGM, Village Hall 7.30pm
The Drama Club is now in the planning stages of an Autumn Revue, on 2, 3 and 4 November 2023. Shaun McCarthy and Benjamin Dawson are coordinating the material, and members and new members are cordially invited to come to the Village Hall on Wednesday 21 June 2023 for a get-together to see what they’ve got and to review various sketches and numbers that we might do.
The plan is to combine the get-together with our AGM. We’ll get the formal stuff done as quickly as possible, and then get to the Revue material…and a drink! Please come along for 7:30pm on 21 June. A reminder to existing members with a formal AGM notice – as required by our constitution – has gone out. In the meantime, please save the date!

The Gaddesden Society’s Constitution
The Gaddesden Society’s original constitution, dating from 1945, has recently come to light, courtesy of Lyn Hyde. A copy is available here, and a copy of a contemporaneous explanatory leaflet ‘How it All Came About’ is available here. We are planning to update the constitution to be better suited for the way we operate today.
If you are aware of any amendments or updates that have previously been made to the 1945 constitution, it would be really helpful to the committee if you could please let us know as soon as possible by email to gadsoc@littlegaddesden.org.uk.
