992 Register June Newsletter
Thanks to the 35 x 992 owners who took the time to complete our 992 Register event survey, which was included within the May newsletter. Along with the huge diverse needs of the main Club, the 992 owners also will have many different thoughts and ideas for events, which they are keen to participate in. To ensure that the new 992 Register team are developing events for 2023 and future years that the owners have interest in, we felt it was important to try to understand in a simple format, the type of event members are looking for, which will ultimately ensure successful and rewarding benefits to all.
Although it is a small number of results it will assist the 992 Register team to focus on event planning, timing and locations which members will be enthusiastic to support.
