Just before I started this booklet the Club was given another new trophy by North Central Wagon and Finance Co. (London) Ltd.

Quite early in this story I said we had three clubs in Hertfordshire. That was so when Falcon first started but by the mid 1950's many new clubs had been formed including many Works Clubs.

With an eye to the future the Falcon Committee recognised the need for clubs to get together and so after the exchange of many letters and views spread over some eighteen months, I was able to call a meeting early in 1958. At a second meeting in July 1958, Falcon were one of twelve clubs who took part in the formation of the London Counties Association which now has nearly 40 member clubs. For 2 years I was Secretary of the Association and now serve on the Committee. Our Competition Secretary is Association Chairman for the third year running.

My little story may recall some pleasant memories for the club member. The newcomer may after reading these few lines realise that all motor sport organised by a club which is registered with the R.A.C. is properly organised by people who know and love their part as members of a motor club. Perhaps they would like to join us.

For the present, my tale is complete. but who knows in a few years time maybe I'll have another story to tell from Behind the Falcon Badge.
