LATEST MYC NEWS
Annual General
Meeting - Tuesday 9 June, 2009
Yes members its that
time of year we all look forward to, the MYC Annual General Meeting.
This will be held at the clubhouse, Tuesday June 9th 2009 at 7:45pm. Once again the committee is appealing to all members to attend the meeting and put forward their views on how best to run the club over the coming year. Do not be afraid! We will not press gang anyone to being on the committee if they don't want to but any offers of support and help will be gratefully received. If you're not happy with any aspects of the club operation, come along and let us know and (preferably) offer to help out improving it.
It looks like next year we will definitely be needing a new Commodore and possibly a new Rear Commodore Sailing, so if anyone has any suggestions please send them in.
