S.P.A.R.C. Museum

Society for the Preservation of Antique Radio in Canada

The Annual General Meeting of the society for the year ended 2017, was held Sunday February 4th 2018 at 1:00pm. It was not as well attended as past meetings have been. This was surprising, considering the special resolution to adopt an updated set of bylaws. Eighteen members were in attendance. Society membership totaled 72 paid up at the year end. I remind members who have not paid for 2018 to do so as soon as possible. The grace period has been reduced from 12 months to 6 with the adoption of the new 2018 bylaws.

The following were elected as directors for the 2018 term: Dave Miller, President; Gerry O’Hara, Vice-President; Bruce Winter, Secretary-Treasurer; Pat Jones, Director; Mel Porritt, Director; Brian Murtsell, Director; Graeme Wright, Director.

The special resolution to adopt a new set of bylaws was passed unanimously. The bylaw update was needed as the British Columbia Societies Act now requires an electronic format. It was an opportunity to update and clarify the original bylaws dating from 1995.

Once again, we thank the CARESS for the use of their well appointed boardroom.
