Want to have a say?  Get involved, and attend the NCVA’s Annual General Meeting.  As a 100% volunteer-driven organization, our activities depend on your involvement.  Details are below.

Note: This was sent out by email to our membership on June 14 (and by snail mail to members without email).

The National Capital Vegetarian Association (NCVA) will be holding its fourth Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Sunday, August 12 at 2 p.m. It will take place at 134 York St. (Condo building) in the Common Room (press separate “common/party room” buzzer when arriving to gain entrance). We will review the achievements we’ve made since the last AGM and look towards the future of the NCVA.

All people who have purchased NCVA memberships between August 13, 2011 and August 12, 2012 are entitled to attend and to vote in the AGM. If you are uncertain as to your eligibility, please email our membership coordinator at ncvamemberships@gmail.com. You may still become a member between now and August 12 and attend the AGM.

As per our bylaws, there will be an election of the board of directors and nominations are currently being accepted. Nominations must be received by 11:59 p.m., August 5. Only NCVA members in good standing may be nominated or make a nomination. You may not nominate yourself. There are up to five director positions open, all of which are one-year terms.

It is strongly preferred that only those who have experience volunteering with the NCVA be nominated for board positions.  (NOTE: The deadline for nominations has passed, and we are no longer taking new nominations).

It would be very helpful if you RSVP’d your attendance to ncvamemberships@gmail.com, as we need a certain number of attendees to make quorum.

Thank you for supporting the NCVA’s efforts to make Ottawa a more veg-friendly place.

Sincerely,
The NCVA Board
