Quarterly Membership Meeting – 20 March 2007


            Updated 14 March 2008

 

Members and prospective new members trickled in from about 6:30 to about 7:00 pm.  There was a minimal turnout.  We discussed the Society and how it works, and stressed that we are strictly a member-led organization and that means that members, if they wish to participate in events, must lead events.  We also discussed the fact that in order to lead an event, members DO NOT have to have done it before, as long as they state so (called a reconnaissance event or reccy).  Also, we agreed that we would post events on our calendar which were in keeping with the Society’s ideals, but might not necessarily be led by our members.

Roland and the AGIS project very kindly supplied us with wonderful food from City View Restaurant, and drinks from the Abuja Horse and Country Club, who so generously allow us to meet on their pleasant grounds.

Then, it was time for a little bit of business.  As we did not have a quorum, we decided to postpone the election of officers (President, Treasurer, and Secretary) until our next meeting, which we decided will be 12 June 2007 – and we would meet on a quarterly basis thereafter.  Then, I gave a quick report about our finances.  Lastly, we discussed the upcoming National meeting in Ile-Ife on the 23-25 and agreed to write a letter to be read at that meeting; and we discussed future trips before adjourning for the evening.
