November 28th General Meeting

At our next general meeting we will be having a byelection to fill positions for Director of Public Relations and Social Media Chair. The current holders of these two positions positions will be out of the country on exchange next term, and so we will be accepting nominations at our meeting and voting in our new execs! Everyone is encouraged to run, especially those in the public relations commitee. Further details regarding these positions can be found at the end of this newsletter. 
 

If you cannot attend this meeting, please fill out the 'Meeting Absence Form'. 

Meeting Absences

In order to make excused absences easier to keep track of, we've decided to create a form for recording meeting absences. You must fill out this form in order to be marked 'excused' and receive the meeting minutes. From now onwards, please fill out this form instead of contacting the secretary. 

Auction Items Needed

At Puppy Wonderland we hope to raise lots of money for PADS, and one of the ways we plan to do this is through a silent auction/raffle. If you have a connection to a business/organization you think might be insterested in providing auction items, please use the "Donation Request Script" to contact them. When you find an item for the auction, please register it in the "Auction Items" document. 

As of right now the deadline to confirm auction items is November 26th so please make sure to start looking for items as soon as possible! If you have any questions about the auction please email Heather at campuscaninesubc.external@gmail.com .

Upcoming Bylaw Changes

After the winter break, we will be reviewing our club bylaws. Since our club's establishment in 2021, we have noticed some changes we would like to see in our club's structure and organization. Before winter break, we will be sending out a form where members will be able to suggest ammendments to the club bylaws. The current bylaws can be found using the link below.
