D1 Executive Committee held the District Committee meeting at the Aberdeen Altens Hotel, Aberdeen on 7 March 2026. A smaller number of members were present than usual but it was great to catch up on news around the District from 12 Clubs, enjoy a lunch and hold a business meeting. Some Clubs find it difficult to travel long distances but it is well worth the effort.
