Dear GAPACC members, June 25 , 2010
Our 2010 AGM on Tuesday June 22 was very successful and well attended. Annual Chair reports were presented for acceptation and discussion by our eight different standing committees.
We presented a well structured 2010-2012 Strategic Plan for consideration to the members present. The explanation was followed by a question period.
One of the main activity of the evening was the presentation of a resolution to modify the GAPACC by-laws that read as such :
PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION
In principle, the name of the Society is Antigonish Culture Alive Association.
The objects of the Society are :
a) To serve the artistic and cultural interests of the people in the Antigonish area.
b) To offer programs and services for the education and training in, and appreciation of, the arts and culture for people in the Antigonish area.The vote was unanimous for the name change and the objectives.
The mandate of the Antigonish Culture alive (ACA) will now refer mostly to the surrounding Antigonish area.
It had become more and more difficult to meet our previous mandate to cover the three counties of Pictou, Antigonish and Guysborough area.We will still be active in Pictou and Guysborough but the Board focus and agenda will reflect more the local Antigonish area needs.
