THE WHEELY FUN CLUB NEWS!

NHCC General Meeting Tuesday Night, May 1, 2012 (6:00pm)

Posted on | 16 Comments

Hopefully all members of the NHCC have received the announcement of a General Meeting this Tuesday night. Since officially incorporating, rules require that after incorporation we hold a General Meeting of the membership to officially elect a board of directors and to pass a set of Bylaws, both of which will happen at Tuesday’s meeting.

Board of Directors
Once elected to the Board of Directors, the Board is responsible for choosing a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer from among the Board. Nominations to the Board of Directors can be made by any member of the club and is open to all club members. Election is by simple majority vote by those present at the meeting. The current Board of Director positions are held by:
Randy Albon: President
Anita Macklin: Vice-President
Vivian VandenHazel: Secretary
Paul Mills: Treasurer
The above have indicated interest in continuing their role and have agreed that should they be re-elected they would accept. If you wish to nominate any member of the NHCC for the Board of Directors, please do so by commenting below. Nominations will also be accepted on Tuesday night in person prior to election.

Bylaws
We are required to present and pass a set of by-laws during this meeting. The proposed bylaws can be found here. We encourage you to read them and to comment on them below if you wish. The final draft will be presented on Tuesday night for approval.

If you wish to attend the meeting, it will be brief, and there’ll be fresh baked cookies, so if the subject matter might be a little boring, at least the snacking won’t be. 🙂

Date: Tuesday May 1st, 2012 (6:00pm)
Location: The residence at 752 Beatty Cr.

Please RSVP if you are coming so we can be sure there are enough fresh baked cookies to munch on.
NOTE: There were a few minor changes to the proposed bylaws and the new ones are found here.
