Mrs Smith said she took great joy in handing over the reins and looked forward to enjoying the more social side of the club.
“No more dotting I’s and crossing T’s, and I certainly won’t miss lugging the case to meetings,” she said.
Mrs Smith said some of the highlights she had enjoyed during her time in office were the interesting guest speakers sharing their knowledge, wandering through delightful garden spaces on bus trips, learning about and picking up tips on plants and the social interaction with like-minded folk.
A club spokesperson said members wholeheartedly thanked Mrs Smith for her contribution and looked forward to her continued involvement within the group.
“Her passion and expertise in all aspects of the club has earned her the highest respect, from not only the members and guest speakers, but all who have had connections over the years,” they said.
The club hosts meetings on the second Thursday of each month at Horsham Angling Club.
At Mrs Smith’s final meeting as secretary, she was presented with a gift of appreciation.
Incoming treasurer Dulcie Fisher was also awarded her badge of office.
