We meet to discuss Club business and plan projects as well as to hold the Club's AGM and Club Assembly. Those who are able to stay for lunch afterwards should order their meal at the bar before the meeting. Food will be served at 1pm.
Our business meeting in May will incorporate the Club's Annual General Meeting and Club Assembly.
The annual general meeting of the club is held where possible between 1st April and 31st May inclusive, but in any event prior to the district training assembly, for the purposes of:
a) Receiving annual reports from the council and committees of the club for the current Rotary year.
b) Receiving the treasurer’s report and proposed budget and determining the entrance fee for the ensuing Rotary year.
c) Electing any honorary members
d) Electing the ordinary members of the council.
e) Confirming the appointment of, or selecting, the Chairmen of committees.
f) Appointing a person or persons to examine the club’s annual accounts.
g) Electing one representative (and substitute) of the club on the district council. Should the elected representative be unable to attend a meeting of the district council, the president may appoint a further substitute representative, whose names shall be communicated to the secretary of the district council in writing before the commencement of that meeting.
The Club Assembly will be the opportunity for the incoming president of the Rotary year 2024-25 to set out his plans for the year.
