We have grown so much as an organisation that we felt, as a committee, that we needed to elect a president. Artist and local personality George Lewis, who has worked closely with us, accepted the role to great applause from the assembled members. George, as well as being an accomplished artist has a great knowledge of Pembroke's history as can be seen from the Pembroke Murals displayed in Pembroke Town Hall which he painted with his wife Jeanne. Pembroke, as well as being so rich in history has a great artistic heritage as well: many of the great topographical artists came here to paint the castle and surroundings. So who better than George to be our president?
