It's that time of year again for our Annual General Meeting. The meeting is scheduled for January 8 at 6 PM, and it is crucial for shaping the course of our organization. Members have the power to influence key decisions that will impact the future, including the election of new board members and approval of revised by-laws.
Your participation is vital; every voice contributes to the vision ahead; members who have paid their 2025 Dues are eligible to vote.
Agenda Items for the Meeting
This year’s Annual Meeting is especially important, focusing on electing new board members. The board directs our organization, and introducing new members can bring fresh insights and innovative ideas. For example, last year, the addition of several new members led to an increase in community engagement initiatives, demonstrating the tangible benefits of diverse perspectives.
Additionally, the revised by-laws will be on the agenda. These proposed changes aim to boost transparency, streamline decision-making, and encourage active member participation, as well as provide structure for the Board of Directors. We encourage you to read through these proposed changes thoroughly to provide fruitful feedback via email prior to our meeting info@sjccapi.org
Benefits of Attending
Participating in the Annual Meeting offers more than simply casting votes. It’s a valuable opportunity to connect with other members, understand our current challenges and opportunities, and discuss future strategies. Such connections can lead to collaborations that significantly strengthen our community.
Additionally, your participation directly influences our organization’s future. Engaged members help ensure our efforts align with the community’s needs. Our Board of Directors is comprised of 11 members (3 will be new members); we also encourage the community to volunteer for events and activities.
Looking Ahead
As we gear up for the 2025 Annual General Meeting, we invite each member to make participation a priority. Your feedback and perspectives are key as we elect new board members. Remember to mark your calendars for January 8 at 6 PM and join us for this opportunity to shape our community's future.
We’re eager to see everyone there. Together, we can accomplish great work and a vibrant future for the entire community!
