At the recent Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea Chamber Of Trade (MASCOT) AGM, it was announced that there would be a new Town Centre Manager in place this Summer. Due the efforts of MASCOT and Brenda Turnbull Director of CAZ, the fulltime position was affirmed.
‘Our Communities need a virile Chamber of Trade,’ said John Handley, the re-elected chairman of MASCOT. Mr. Handley said how encouraged he was with the increase in membership and improved dialogue with local government authorities. ‘The strong management team has forged good relationships within the Community. This has enabled MASCOT to ‘come of age’ as the acknowledged voice of the businesses in both Mablethorpe and Sutton on Sea.’
During the AGM, John Handley was the re-elected chairman, Debbie Sutcliffe as secretary; Chris Drew, Rob Manning, Dave Ives and David Carruthers were re-elected onto the managing committee. John Ostle was elected treasurer. Donna Sirett also joined the committee.
After the AGM, Dave Fenton gave an introduction the forthcoming ‘Mabo KO’ modelled on the 70’s ‘it’s a Knock Out’ competitions. Brenda Turnbull updated the members on Town Centre Manager post and the Town Centre Partnership. Graham Cullen, Chairman of the Mablethorpe Tourism Forum, reported on the Forum’s achievements and plans for the next 12 months. These include running a Craftmarket within the Bathing Beauties Festival planned for 8th, 19th and 20th September.
