Business arising from minutes

DK looked at CAMS 4H schedule for Specials and relevant schedule J and e-mailed both to KS.  This was discussed in general business.

KS contacted the MGC Club, they had no knowledge of a Special class.  Contacted Nathan Chivers to clarify which club ran the event he attended.  West Lakes was the club and KS is in the process of contacting them.
