To all BISC members - important message
I am writing to you all regarding our upcoming AGM which is being held on Wednesday 25th May at 7.30pm at our usual venue of the Plough and Harrow.
As a membership organisation, we are required to hold an annual general meeting to review the past year, report on the club's finances, agree on on-going membership fees and vote on the new board for the upcoming year. We'll also take a look at some small changes to the club's governing rules.
In true BISC fashion, we try out hardest to keep the formailities to a minimum and we plan that the meeting will take no more than 30 minutes. Following an extended break, I will be running a workshop on gathering ideas for the coming year's programme so please do come along with your ideas for what you would like to see on future programmes.
In order for the motions to be carried, it is important that we have a minimum number of members present. Could I therefore ask you to make attendance a priority if at all possible.
I have attached a number of papers for the AGM itself:
1) AGM agenda and motions, which explains the key items to be discussed.
2) AGM minutes from last year
3) Proposed club bylaws with changes highlighted
4) Proposed standing rules with changes highlighted
In the interests of the environment, we will not be bringing along paper copies of the attached documents so if you wish to have them to refer to in the meeting, please do print your own copies.
Myself and the rest of the committee are looking forward to seeing you on the 26th May. I would be really grateful if you know that you will not be able to attend, you send your apologies to me in advance as we would like to note these in the minutes.
Very best wishes
