April 2008

Dear Representative,

I have great pleasure in enclosing full details of the 2008 Conference which will take place at Kimbolton School on Saturday, 10th May by kind permission of the Headmaster, Mr J. Belbin and with invaluable support from Old Kimboltonian, Mr Ken Laflin.

The Committee and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at the Conference and if for any reason you are unable to attend then please do encourage someone else from your Society to come instead. A day at the Conference will be a day both well spent and enjoyable.

As you will see we have arranged a most interesting and relevant programme that includes a group of distinguished speakers as well as plenty of opportunity for the interchange of ideas and experiences both during the pre-lunch drinks and later in the Question and Answer Session. In addition, the optional Dinner at 7.30pm (with Revd Ron Lancaster, Director Kimbolton Fireworks as the Guest Speaker) will afford further opportunity for informal discussion. 

The Committee is most grateful to the following schools and their AROPS Representatives for facilitating future AROPS meetings:
