Antrim Agricultural Society Appoint new Patron at AGM

Antrim Agricultural Society Appoint new Patron at AGM

20/05/2018

Antrim Agricultural Society recently held its annual general meeting at Shanes Castle; the grounds of its annual Randox Antrim Show.

During the meeting’s formal proceeding James Crawford was appointed to Patron of the Society, a position left vacant by the passing of George Robson Snr; a long standing and dedicated member of the Society to whom tributes were paid.

The positions of President, James Clements, Chairman, Fred Duncan, and Vice Chair, Robert Wallace, remain constant for the incoming year.

As expected, directors Tom Clyde, William Graham, Alistair Lindsay, James Gray, Andrew Nicholl and John Herron, who were all up for re-election, were re-elected.

Finally, Laura Patterson from Holestone YFC was appointed the committee’s YFC Representative, as Melanie McClean has become a co-opted Director.

Guest Speaker from Randox Health

After the formal proceedings, attendees got a chance to hear from the evening’s guest speaker; a representative of the Show’s new title sponsor, Business Development Manager, Marc Coppez from Randox Health.  Marc gave an informative talk that gave attendees an insight into looking after your health and the benefits of having Randox Health Checks.
