On Wednesday, October 18, a very well attended and successful meeting, and annual general meeting was held at the Gilgandra CWA Rooms in Warren Road. 

President Rebekah Makila greeted everyone, and the evening began with the annual general meeting. This meeting was chaired by Denise Quealey, a member from the Tooraweenah branch. Other reports were given by the president, treasurer, and all other reports, such as culture and environment, were very well received.
