Annual General Meeting
When: Sunday July 8, 2018 at 9:30 am
Where: Haliburton Curling Club
Message from the President:
I am attaching hereto a tentative agenda for this upcoming meeting. Of note is a presentation on a proposed navigation marker project and proposed new constitution. Any comments or suggestions prior to the AGM are encouraged and welcomed. Please send them to kgonnsen@metrocon.ca. I have also attached copies of the old constitution and bylaws which if you read them you can tell they are totally out of date.
As well we will have Reeve Murray Fearrey, and Councillor Dennis Casey in attendance giving news of activities in the Township. Finally Janice Bishop will be making a presentation on responsible renting of your cottage.
I hope that you will attend and that you will find the agenda of interest. I look forward to seeing you
Best Regards,
Karl Gonnsen,
President
