Hello members,
I can’t believe we’re nearing the end of the year already. Our December members meeting willbe held on Tuesday, December the 8th at 10 am at Friends Diner. The minutes of theNovember meeting are attached. We will be discussing the most recent charitable activities aswell as plans for the January annual assembly.
The annual assembly is when we elect members to positions on the board of directors. Wendyde Graaff will be resigning as president due to health concerns. Our bylaws state that if theposition of president is open, the vice president can take that position in the interim until anothercandidate is found, but this needs to be done as soon as possible. If it is not possible, then weneed to have a conversation about dissolution at the annual assembly in 2022 because theorganization cannot continue without a slate of 4 officers, president, vice-president, treasurer,and secretary.
Please consider the board openings, and whether you can contribute to the operation of Amigosde Mexico. Thank you for your attention.
