The Keep Fit Association’s 52nd National AGM

Our annual get-together got under way with a Fitness Moves warm up lead by Frances Dickens, followed by a Creative Moves session with Lisa Terry. Each session was well attended and warmly appreciated both by those taking part and those preferring to sit on the side and watch. After lunch came the business of the day and our 52nd National AGM. Darran Bennett, Chief Executive of the Exercise Movement and Dance Partnership outlined the Annual Report for 2009, Working Together, which was provided in hard copy to those assembled, along with a report written by John Hunter summarising what had been achieved since the forming of the partnership in May 2006.

Volunteer of the Year Award

A particularly pleasurable part of the AGM is the announcement of the winners of the Volunteer of the Year Award.  This is the occasion when we celebrate the contribution made by just some of our members towards making the KFA unique in its blend of keeping fit and social activities.

This year, the winners are:
    Committee Member            Doris Bridger, South East (Surrey)
    Teacher                              Diana Bigley , East Midlands (Northants)
    Member                              Pamela Westmore, Southern Counties

The National Competitions in Blackpool, earlier in the year, provided a wealth of superbly choreographed and executed team and individual performances.   Some of those taking part in the competitions, including winning teams, performed again for us today, along with other demonstrations by teams that show the breadth of KFA membership.
