2013 AGM
Hello all;
Even though it may be 2014 we still need to have our club annual general meeting for 2013. I suggest we have it at our home on January 28, 2014 at 7:00 pm.
We need to review the financial statements for 2013 to see where we are at when we start 2014.
We also need to get an executive in place for 2014. Would anyone who is interested in being on the Club executive for 2014 please contact me so that we might discuss the different positions?
We need to put our minds to events in 2014 including club rides and races. We are able to host the BC Provincial Youth Road Race Championship on June 7, 2014 and the BC Provincial Youth and Senior Time Trial Championship on June 8, 2014. In light of hosting those events we should start discussing how we can best put on excellent races.
We are at 6046 Aldergrove Drive, Courtenay. That is a bit out of town in the Kitty Coleman area.
Please email me or call at 250-338-6086.
Richard Ellsay
