At our AGM on Tuesday April 12th a new member to our existing executive was added. His name is Mike Nicholson who will be our new ‘Member at large’ replacing Brian Farrell from our 2014/15 season. There were no other nominations from the floor and the rest of the executive from this past season are reoffering their positions. At the meeting we had 5 members present along with last season’s executive of Ray Bates (President), Phil O’Regan (Vice-president), Kay Chisholm, (Secretary), Holly Nahrebecky (Treasurer), and Lois MacDonald (Member at large).  Regrets came from Paula Dobson (Past President) and Jim Muise. Below is a picture of the New Executive that takes over on May 30, 2016.

The Chedabucto CC AGM is being held this Tuesday, April 12, 2016, in the rink at 6:30 PM. In order to conduct the meeting’s business we must have a quorum of  7 or more CCC members.

Depending on whether or not there are additional items added to the Club’s April 12th’s AGM’s agenda with the approval of those in attendance, I anticipate a brief meeting.

In addition to seeking approval of the Club’s October 5, 2015, Semi-AGM’s minutes, as attached to this email, the two items on the agenda at this time are the Treasurer’s financial statement and the nomination committee’s recommendations for the 2016 – 2017 Executive members.The nomination committee has a full slate of officers to nominate but I will be asking for nominations from the floor as per procedure. The officers as elected on April 12, as per the Club’s By-laws, will assume the responsibilities of their duties on May 30, 2016.

Best regards,

Ray

Agenda AGM April 12 2016

Another great curling season has come to an end with our annual banquet held again this year at the St. Francis Harbour church hall. Upwards of 90 or more people attended this banquet and were treated to a wonderful Roast Beef dinner and desert by the ladies (and men) of St. Francis Harbour Church. Thanks go out to them for all their efforts in creating a beautiful atmosphere for our members and guests to enjoy. Thanks also to all who helped get this organized. Awards were handed out to our Junior members by Sceles Realty and Turning Point Curling, and also to our League champions in Day and Night Leagues. A special award was also handed out to one of our members for her 25 year involvement with the club, Bette Ann Corkum. Thank you to Ray for getting this all together and for the great MC job. Below is a sampling of the pictures taken during the night:

Last night April 5th the Night League and curling season came to a close with two championship finals. On Ice 1 the ‘A’ final featuring the Brymer siblings, Blair and  Shauna, took place. In the end Blair’s team of Don Armstrong, Heather Manual and spare Mary E. A. Connolly (filling in for Karen Hall) took home the A championship game. Congrats to all. In the ‘B’ final Team Hadley squeaked out a close game vs Team O’Connor with Paul Long, filling in for skip Margaret Hadley, hitting an angle raise to the button for the win. Congrats to Margaret and her team of Bernie Curry, Mary K. Connolly, and Patricia Lynn Currie. Also thank you for all who showed up for the games with a standing room only crowd at the glass.
