2017 Annual General Meeting
The Glasgow University Curling Club held its AGM on Wednesday 8th March in Revolution Glasgow. As usual, there was much to be discussed and much food and drink to be had and our thanks go to Revolution Glasgow and their staff for their continued hospitality and sponsorship.
There was much to congratulate about this year, with a strong financial position, an improvement on last year's league performance and a high level of commitment from our new members.
There was also much to look forward to, with the SSS Open coming up in Stranraer, discussion revolved around rooms at the hotel, teams and the all important fancy dress! Teams were sorted as follows:
