SUMMARY:Annual General Meeting of Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society
DESCRIPTION:Annual General Meeting. \nAs a registered charity YWHS holds a meeting every year to conduct the formal business of the Society with supporters present.  \nThis meeting is for those who have registered as supporters of the Society by midnight on Saturday 9 May\, 2026 entitling them to vote on matters arising during the AGM. Joining instructions will be sent out to those registered supporters during week commencing 11 May\, 2026. To attend the meeting you will simply need to have a PC or a mobile phone connected to the internet. If you can already see this website\, you will be able to log on to our AGM.  \nThe format of the meeting will be: \n\nChair’s annual report on our activities for the year 2025-26.\nPlans for the next twelve months and beyond.\nFinancial report for the year.\nElection of Society officers for the coming year.\nAny other business.\nPresentation: Artificial Intelligence and historic photographs.\n\nFor the first time our online AGM will include a short Powerpoint presentation. This year we have decided to talk about how the Society has been experimenting with using AI technology to enhance historic photographs. You will have heard much about the “threat” of AI but here we demonstrate how AI tools are able to contribute positively to what we do as historians. By helping us to “illuminate ” old photographs we hope to show the younger generation that history need not just be seen in black and white.  \n

SUMMARY:Bicentenary Flotilla Photography Competition for Under 25s
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday 18 July\, a flotilla of over thirty waterways’ vessels will navigate around Goole Docks\, emulating what happened two hundred years earlier in 1826 at the opening of the Knottingley to Goole canal and the port and town of Goole. There will be a variety of craft in the flotilla – narrow boats\, Dutch barges\, cruisers\, tugs\, launches\, commercial barges and RIBs – and we expect much waving of flags and sounding of horns to mark this historic occasion. \nThe public will be able to watch the flotilla from a number of locations around the docks and we hope that together we will create a memorable event which may never be seen again for another hundred years\, if ever. \n  \nThe Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society (YWHS) collects and publishes historic photographs of what took place in Goole’s canal and docks when the waterways industry was thriving. Today there is only a fraction of the traffic that once plied up and down the canal but our docks\, managed by ABP\, remain a very important part of Yorkshire’s economy. We believe that the flotilla event will one day be regarded as an important piece of the history of Goole and we need your help to record in photographs and video what you saw happening on 17 – 18 July 2026. Our objective is to collect and publish online as much material as possible so that in the future\, anyone will be able to look back at a vast collection of photographs and recordings to see who was there\, what they saw and what they heard. Imagine in fifty years’ time showing your grandchildren a reel with you and your mates waving and cheering as the flotilla goes by in Goole docks. \nPrizes \nTo make this challenge even more interesting we are going to award prizes for the very best entries submitted to YWHS. We have received donations from individuals and businesses who want to encourage Goole’s young folk to take an interest in the history of Goole\, a very special town with a very special history. Your competition entries will provide the evidence of that which we will share with the world. \nOur judges will have the unenviable task of picking the best entries and the very\, very best entry will receive the top prize of £250 of Amazon vouchers. There will also be a number of further prizes for second and third places also in Amazon vouchers. \n  \nTips \nYour entries should have been taken on the 17 or 18 July 2026\, so we will hope to see your photographs taken while the preparations for the flotilla are taking place as well as from the day of the flotilla event. \nWe would rather not see heavily edited material.

SUMMARY:Goole Model Boat Club Open Days
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 1997\, Goole Model Boat Club occupies a site on South Dock\, Goole\, where many years ago a pond was built for the club members to exercise their fleet of impressively turned out model craft. The club meets every Saturday morning throughout the year and is opening its gates to the public as part of the Waterways Heritage weekend. Demonstrations will run throughout the weekend and there will be a small pop-up pond created for children to have a go at piloting model craft. \nHistoric Objects \nThroughout the weekend there will be the opportunity to get up close with items from the industrial history of Goole as the home of Goole Model Boat Club is also the site of Goole’s iconic No 5 Coal Hoist\, a grade II listed building\, and also one of the last surviving Tom Pudding compartment boats. The Apex light and a dolphin – not the mammal – from Goole Docks are also located there. Together these form a poignant reminder of the importance played by the movement of coal in the development of the port of Goole. While we are not allowed to access the coal hoist it is still an impressive monument to an industry that lasted over 150 years. \nBicentenary Flotilla Viewpoint \nOn the afternoon of Saturday 18 July\, between 2pm and 4pm\,  the GMBC site will be an ideal viewpoint for the Bicentenary Flotilla of vessels which will convoy around Goole Docks emulating the opening of the port in 1826. Take the opportunity to enter our photography competition. \nPop-up Exhibition – Railway on the Water \nView our collection of amazing photographs taken in 1974 by photography student Duncan Davies who spent a day onboard the tom pudding tug\, Wheldale. This portfolio captures the crew’s journey between Goole and Doncaster and their return loaded with coal. They make what was dangerous work look easy.  \nWe will also be running a video of the coal hoist operating and a former coal hoist operator will be available to answer all your questions.  \nAccess during this weekend \nThe site will be open from 10am to 6pm on Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday. \nThe site must be accessed on foot from Dutch River Side where there is roadside parking.  There is no public parking on site this weekend.  \nThere is limited wheelchair access at the site and no disabled toilet. \n  \n  \n
