AGM and WHAT the new societies Act means for PACS

WEDNESDAY MAY 25, 2016 at 7 pm at the Education Services Centre, 2121 Lonsdale, 5th floor

Come out to hear about the NEW Societies Act and how the changes will affect your PAC (i.e. constitution and bylaw changes, etc)! We are bringing in Bryan Millman https://www.bht.com/bryan-millman of the Bull Housser Law Firm https://www.bht.com/our-firm and he will be doing a presentation and Q&A. 

The Annual General Meeting will follow (around 8:15 pm)
  
A formal Agenda was emailed out and will be posted on the web page shortly.
 
One of the purposes of the Annual General Meeting is to elect a new Executive for the 2016/17 school year.  All Executive positions are up for election each year.  NVPAC encourages ALL parents who are interested in issues at the District level to consider joining the Executive.  The time commitment varies with the particular role taken on, but at minimum, NVPAC Executive members are expected to attend one Executive meeting and one General Membership meeting per month.  There are no General Membership meetings held in September, December, March or June. 
 
We hope to have at least one representative (either PAC Chair or DPAC Rep) from each school in attendance for both the presentation and our AGM.
 
If you have any questions or need more information, please contact me at anichol@northvanpac.org
 
Regards,
Amanda Nichol
Chair, North Van PAC
