The board can decide to change this, but traditionally we have not opened up "guests" for the annual meeting because it is a members-only event (due to the board vote and the fact the club picks up the cost of the food).

You simply need to be a full member to attend the annual meeting Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted September 24, 2015 Report Posted September 24, 2015 So we discussed the children at the meeting and we do not want someone missing the meeting because they have a child and parental duties are interfering. If you need to bring your child, bring em!!! They won't be able to vote and if the restaurant charges us for them then we'll ask you to pay for their meal. But please don't let it keep you from attending. We want as many members attending as possible. I'll be calling in the final count tomorrow Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
