The Clerks Report

Saturday, the 19th May 2001, Brayton High School, nr Selby, North Yorkshire. A fine day with the promise of a breeze later, a nice day for the 293rd Ancient Scorton Silver Arrow Shoot, after a terrific blast on the Bugle by the Lieutenant the Company of Gentlemen assembled for their usual pep talk. After which, under the control of Dennis Heritage and Paul Senior, the stalwart Judges, the shooting commenced. The Lieutenants Bugle for the best Red was claimed at the first end by Garry Aldred of Lancashire, The Ancient Silver Arrow was won at the 3rd end by Dave Phillips, Longbowman of Selby Archers.

The Buffet provided for Luncheon was excellent, the wine, superb. After lunch, the meeting, again rather a long one.

The Lady scorers once again were their usual charming selves and did their duty with their usual banter and wit.

80 Archers took part in the event, 60 of them were Longbowmen, all had a good day as far as the swear bag was concerned, £38.45 was raised for the Captains Methodist Church. After the Captain expressed his thanks and appreciation to all who assisted with the shoot, his lady, Melanie presented all the Trophies and Sweepstakes.

Minutes of the 293rd Meeting - 19th May 2001


The Loyal Toast was taken and whilst the Gentlemen were still standing the ladies and guests withdrew. The meeting started with the Captain proposing a toast to the Society, the Arrow and the Captain and Lieutenant elect. The minutes were read by the Lieutenant and duly signed by the Captain. Apologies were received from Adrian Hayes, George Thorley, John Seddon and Barry Norbury who donated a small cheque to the running costs, thank you Barry.

Under matters arising the Captain reported there was no problem collecting the Arrow from the Royal Armouries, where it had been lodged for the past 11 months. The Clerk then rose to give his report, The Queen's reply to the Loyal Message and the White Rose had not yet arrived. The balance of the reserve fund is now £3124.51, the administrative fund is £498.71.

Matters for discussion - Andrew Neal, the retiring Captain read out a letter from Philip Rolls explaining that he had identified that the website address www.scortonarrow.co.uk had been registered by a company called Soho Consulting. It was pointed out that the practise of registering certain important or key names was quite common and was speculative to try and sell the name and site on afterwards. Philip Rolls had then registered the website name www.scortonarrow.com for a period of two years and kindly offered it to the Society for its own use. It was agreed that the retiring Captain and the Captain Elect should look into the possibility of using a website for the Society.

After thanking all concerned for their valuable help the retiring Captain sent the assembled company back to the field, shooting recommenced at 3.30pm.

Also in the year 2001
