Since our last issue I have to report a number of
changes in the club. Our President, Andrew Snelling, has
been promoted to a new position in Macclesfield and, con-
sequently, has had to resign. The council would like to
record their thanks to him for his long service to the club
as secretary, treasurer and, finally, as President. I have
been asked to become the new President, a position which I
am honoured to accept. I am remaining bulletin editor but
Mike Parker has taken over the responsibilities of member-
ship secretary, so please take note of the new address to
send your subscriptions.
It is with regret that council has had to decide to
increase the subscription rates as explained by the treasurer
at the back of this issue. I am sure that if you look back at
the Essex Naturalists and the bulletins that you have been
sent, you will still consider that the extra subscription is
well worth while.
The new programme offers a wide range of venues to
visit and new opportunities to learn more about Essex wild
life. I look forward to meeting you next year.
Tony Boniface.
