What to expect at our AGM this year:
Reports on Our 2019 Year: You will hear reports from two people: Lily, our Market Manager on some of the highlights of the market this year, and Carly, our outgoing President, on some of the work we completed in 2019, and some of our plans currently underway.
Elect or Acclaim a Revised Board: Some of the most basic business of an AGM is to elect a new board. We do not take nominations from the floor, and haven’t for a few years. We are losing two of our directors this year due to some personal life events and hope to have a few new faces willing to step forward.The New West Farmers Market Board can accept up to seven elected board members. Email board@newwestfarmers.ca to submit your intent and interest in joining as a board member. Nominations close on Sunday, February 2nd.
After the business portion there will be treats and socializing.
The excitement is growing. It’s going to be a good one. We hope you can join us on February 9th.
