Registration & Timing
The AGM is open to all members of the Society. A member is anyone who has properly registered and paid to play a league or other program in 2017. Registration will be from 6:15-7:00pm, and you cannot vote without registering. The meeting will start at 7:00pm and run for about 1.5 to 2 hours, followed by the social. Those who cannot attend may vote by proxy: complete a proxy form and give it to a registered member to vote on your behalf (limit of one proxy per member present).
Board Elections
The Board of Directors is responsible for decisions that can have immediate and long-term impacts on the VUL. Being a director is also a great way to give back to the VUL.
Four positions are up for election in 2017. All terms last 2 years. This year we're looking for those with experience in HR, law, IT, governance, business, or community leadership, but we encouraged all VUL members to consider the opportunity. For a summary of what's involved, see the Board FAQ, email the Board via board@vul.ca, or email the E.D. via craig.woods@vul.ca.
Nominations are now closed. View the candidates for 2017 elections.
New Business & Reports
Proposed new business must be submitted to the Board of Directors at least seven days prior to the AGM. No items were submitted this year.
Reports for the AGM will be posted here one day before the event.
