Under New Business
– Much discussion ensued regarding the Can-At Games. Jim and Brian will study this
issue, and meet with each of the three Co-Chairs separately. Gerry wondered if
these games should be reduced to four days, instead of seven. Much will depend on the success of the November
Sectional Tournament in Halifax, as to whether we will continue with this
year’s Can-At games, and also as to whether Unit 194 will hold the March
Sectional Tournament.
The general consensus is that our Club games are not
operating as successfully yet, as they did prior to pre-Covid days.
John wondered if there are set dates for Board of
Directors’ Meetings. Linda confirmed that the Board can meet anytime, upon
need.
Jim will make a motion to the AGM on Saturday, that
all Board members, minus Gerry who is retiring, will continue in their
positions.
John wondered about the management of Boards for the
various Sectionals, now that Edgar has retired.
This equipment has been put in storage, at a cost of $85.00/ mo. Victor
will do the Boards for all the Tournaments.
Please note the Agenda sent out on Nov. 6 was
for the AGM meeting on Nov.20th.
It was decided the Board will meet again on Monday,
Dec. 6th, 4:30 pm. It should
be clearer then, if and how to continue with these various Tournaments.
Ron moved, and Fran seconded – that the meeting
adjourn.
Jean B. Mackenzie, Sec’ty
