The Tainui Croquet Club held their 97th AGM this morning and are grateful to all those who attended. The club members present agreed to undertake the building of the new clubrooms which is exciting for all of us, and we will continue to finalise the budget and apply for funds. Our Prizegiving was held after the AGM and congratulations to all of those who were recognised. In a change of routine this year the hoop was run for the end of the season in the AGM meeting room. Thanks Brigid. It may officially be the end of our season but it is in name only for Tainui. Our season continue through the whole year.
