Annual General Meeting - March 6

This is a reminder that our very first AGM as the Squamish Valley Photography Association will be held this coming Wednesday March 6 at the Squamish Arts Club Building on Cleveland Ave.

Because we are a brand new Association, we are required to register all of our new members and ensure that only registered members vote.  This is a very easy process – we will be taking registrations at the door between 7:00 and 7:30pm on the night of the AGM.  We will need your first and last name, your email address and your $10 annual registration fee.

The ten dollars will help us pay for Association filing fees, SAC Annual membership, club events, etc.  With 7 ‘Photo Walks’ a year, 5 ‘Photo Talks’, exhibition opportunities, guest speakers and special events like last year’s Project Sound we hope you agree it is a very good value.

Schedule of AGM:
o   7 pm – registration & sign in
o   7:30 pm – call to order, introduction of board
o   7:40 pm – President’s report
o   7:50 pm – Treasurer report
o   8:00 pm – Election – starting with President, then Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director-at-large
o   Post-election – discussion about opportunities for committees and groups, other club news and upcoming events

We have volunteers for each of the elected positions so don’t worry that we will try and twist your arm when you come in the door.  However, if you are interested in standing for election you are most welcome to do so. 

We very much need your support as we embark on this next phase of our growth.  Please join us on Wednesday March 6.

Doug Hackett – President

PS If you are not able to attend the AGM – we will make separate arrangements to get your membership set up.
