Please RSVP to receive the Google Meet Link to join our April 2021 Virtual General Meeting where members will have the opportunity to vote for the 2021-22 Board.

Voting for your Board is one of the key responsibilities of being a Member of our AWC.  The Board oversees all aspects of the Club with the help of committees and volunteers.  With guidance by the Chair, Celeste Brown, the Nominating Committee members, Laurie Martecchini, Una Mulvihill, Sarah Partridge, Minal Rajan, Jo van Kalveen, and Peggy van Luyn, have worked hard to put together a slate of officers for the 2021-22 Club year.  A big thank you goes out to all of them for their time and commitment.

In addition to voting on the Slate of Officers, there will be a vote on the modification of the Membership Dues categories for Students and Nonresident Affiliates.  These changes to the By-Laws under Article 1: Membership, Section C: Dues are points #8 and #9.  Student Memberships (#8) will now have the added age qualification of being 25 years old or younger.  The requirement to be studying full time in the Netherlands with a valid ID remains the same.  Nonresident Affiliate Memberships (#9) will decrease in cost to 15.

At the General Meeting, resolutions may only be adopted if a quorum of at least 15% of the Members is present or validly represented at the meeting.  If you cannot join the meeting virtually, then you can vote by email by contacting our Parliamentarian, Georgia Regnault, at parliamentarian@awcthehague.org before the meeting.

After the voting, there will be a FAWCO update on their March Virtual General Meeting by our FAWCO Rep, Molly Boed, and a Power Point Presentation by Anne van Oorschot on her work as Environmental Chair of FAWCO.
