Meetings
We invite you to join us for our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Monday, December 8, 2025.
Your attendance is essential to ensure we reach quorum for voting purposes. This meeting will also serve as a celebration as we close out our 50th Anniversary season. Enjoy an evening with fellow members and friends.
The evening's events will include the Photo Show, Year-End Awards presentation, a review of the past season, and the installation of the new Board of Directors. We look forward to seeing you there. Light festive refreshments will be served.
