There is now an even split across Basingstoke as the Treasurer, Alan May also lives in Oakley and the Vice President, Chris Perkins MVO, lives in Kempshott as does Paul Flint the Secretary/Publicity Officer. The eastern side of Basingstoke is equally represented on the committee with new members Alex Marianos and Richard Wood living in Bramley and David Wickens joins Outings Organiser Tony Atchison in Chineham and Stephen Thair the Lunch Steward in Old Basing.
