ATTENTION - IT'S TIME TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING!
WEDNESDAY MAY 21, 2008 @ 7:00 PM
SEAFORTH AND DISTRICT COMMUNITY CENTRE
Every year Seaforth Minor Hockey is required to hold an Annual General Meeting (AGM). It is at this meeting, that any amendments to the constitution may be made (if submitted in writing within the proper time frame), it is also at this meeting when all stakeholders, which is you, the parents/guardians have the best opportunity to have your say.
This is when ALL parents should make every effort to attend. You spend so much time at the arena, and we hear so many people with so many concerns, this is when you need to MAKE the time to come out and listen to what is going on, provide your input and most importantly VOTE.
The election of the 2008/2009 Executive will take place at the AGM. A maximum of 11 people may be elected to the Executive and any regular member (i.e. parent of a child registered with Seaforth Minor Hockey) may nominate a person for consideration as a Director.
From among the Directors, the following positions are elected by the Executive:
President
Vice President
Secretary
Treasurer
As well, the Executive normally has the following positions as well:
Registrar
Ice Captain
Referee in Chief
Fundraising
Webmaster
By-laws/Policy & Procedures
Equipment
Houseleague Convenor
Please don't avoid coming to the meeting thinking that your attendance will obligate you to a board position or a job. Rather liken your attendance to any other election, as your opportunity to cast your vote. This is your chance to cast your vote for the person for whom you feel will best serve the betterment of the organization.
If you have been unhappy with how things have been done then it's time you came to the meeting and had your say and voted. If you liked how things have been running then you also need to show up and support those members that have been working on the board in the past.
Regardless of how you feel the Seaforth Minor Hockey Board needs to know, we need the members to come out and tell us and this is the best opportunity provided for everyone.
So please, if you attend one meeting all year make it the ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING MAY 21 2008 @ 7:00 pm
at the SEAFORTH AND DISTRICT COMMUNITY CENTRE.
