After much debate and deliberation the NMRA British Region's annual convention celebrating the NMRA's 75th year in 2010 will held in the UK at Kegworth. Vice President, Mike Arnold said "The Board of Directors considered all the bids very carefully. To get a balanced decision we asked the members for help, took advice and opinions at the AGM, through the Yahoo group and in discussion with members. It was only after all that that the final, tough decision narrowly came in favour of Kegworth". British Region NMRA members can now pencil in their diary the dates of what will undoubtedly be a very special meeting to be held at the Yew Lodge Hotel, Kegworth on Friday 22 to Sunday 24 October 2010. "I know that everyone concerned with making this decision would like to thank all those who took the time and so much effort to present their proposals for the respective venues," continued Mike. "We would like to give special thanks to those who proposed Bournemouth and hope that they will present their case for the 2011 convention" Mike Arnold said "Now that we have something definite to work towards we can find out what the members want us to help them with, ask for their help in preparation and be here to help make the convention all that they want it to be". Planning will now begin in earnest for this special convention. Members are invited to make suggestions and further details will be posted on the web site and printed in Roundhouse once the Swindon convention next October is over. In the meantime any questions or offers of help can be addressed to Nobby Clarke in the first instance.
