Updating the Website:
Rosemary suggested that the web site needs to be tidied and the minutes etc. archived into years;
Trevor to contact GoldHost and he and Rosemary to do this.
Trevor to be listed as general contact and Rosemary to collate e.mails and dispatch as necessary.
The group gave Trevor and Rosemary authority to proceed as discussed.

Tributes in the Park:
The group was given an update on the progress the sub committee has made on the organisation of this event, and the tribute acts which will be performing.

The Green at Ox Lane:
Further to a query in last month’s minutes by Vic Cole about the ownership of the land, KCC have been contacted and written permission obtained for a planter on the site.
Rob is still having discussions about a sponsored planter, and we now have two quotes for sleepers. 
He will follow this up and advise on progress next month

St. Michaels Bites:
Trevor advised he hoped to publish in Mid June
PTA to be contacted to see if they would like to include the route of their fun run.
Existing adverts would be used if no new subscribers were forthcoming.

Feast of St. Michael – 29th September  (Michaelmas)
Trevor suggested as our Church Saint we may like to mark the day in the village –
Perhaps some bunting.  All suggestions welcome.
