The Concave was opened by the Supreme Ruler, Wy.Bro. David Blackburn, who welcomed everyone, especially our Visiting Deacon, Wy.Bro. Len Hillier.
After the Muster Roll had been called, we welcomed V.Wy.Bro. John Bryant, P.G.V., as a re-joining member of the Conclave.
Pursuant to Notice of Motion, Wy.Br. Ivan Thorne was made an Honorary Member of the Conclave in recognition of all he has done for the Conclave over the years.
A lengthy discussion then took place on how we can increase membership and safeguard the future of the Conclave.
After the Conclave was closed we all sat down to an enjoyable meal together at the Nutfield Masonic Centre.
