Annual General Meeting!!!

I am going to try and post all the information here istead of sending people long e-mails.

Our meeting is scheduled for Thursday November 22 at 7:30. We booked a room at the Clagary Outdoor Council Building at 1111 Memorial Drive NW. Parking is available if ou are coming from west Memorial. Otherwise the parking lot is a pain to access.

Firstly, we were audited by the AGLC. They require us to clean up our constitution to ensure they get casino money back if the club disovles. If anyone wants to have a look at the constitution and suggest any further changes, now would be the time. I will see if I can scan in and post a PDF copy.

Secondly, we will elect our executive. Nominations will be taken from the floor for all positions.

Our current executive is as follows:

President: James Purdy
Treasurer: Dianne Sutherland/ Joanne Breau
VP Road: Graeme Thomson
VP Track: Bob Veroba
VP MTB: Cory Wallace
VP Cyclo: Per Strom

The treasurer is probably the most crucial position in the executive and the most onerous as they keep our finances is line with AGLC requirements. Dianne moved to Innisfail and Joanne will be moving to Montreal so we need a treasurer.

Thirdly, we are looking into tying our banking to a sponsor or at least getting a credit card.

Fourthly, Sean Huggins-Chan has been looking into potential sponsorship for the club. I am thinking that we will not not change the kit radically so that we can still use our old stuff to compete in.

Fifthly, we always have club awards and I am accepting nomimations.

We have no fixed categories but needless to say I will have swimsuit locked up.

Lastly, reimbursement.

We reimburse with if you provide receipts!!! We were audited by AGLC and we made it through very well because in years past everyone provided great receipts! We reimburse:

1. Oval and coaching fees;
a) all juniors and u17 can claim up to $2000 for coaching and camps
b) all 19-22 can claim $1000
c) paralympic athletes over 22 can claim $1000

2. Alberta race entry fees;

3. Travel (gas only) in Alberta as long as more than one member was in the car;

4. We will only reimburse out of province travel if prior aproval was obtained. This is a AGLC rule.

I will review this information and advies of changes.

Cheers!!!!!
