AGM/ Monthly Meeting

April 8 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Dear VMS Members,

As a valued member in good standing, you are invited to attend the Vancouver Mycological Society Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Tuesday, April 8 at 7:00 PM at Floral Hall.
The AGM is held during the first quarter of our regular scheduled monthly meeting.
Look for another email from us regarding the speaker and topic!

Please note: Voting will take place ONLY IN PERSON and only during the AGM. (No online option is available)

Each year, the VMS holds an AGM to conduct essential club business, including:

Election of Officers (President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary)

Election of Directors (members of the Board)

Review and approval of the financial report

This meeting is required to maintain our status with the BC Societies Registry. Due to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the current Officers and Board—after consultation—have approved a streamlined process to ensure we meet our obligations for 2024/25.
🍄 Interested in Joining the Board?🍄

If you would like to run for a Board position, we are accepting applications until April 6, 2025. We encourage nominations for the roles of President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. **We are specifically looking to find a new Treasurer! There will be training from the previous Treasurer (Tom Balog)**

We encourage all members who are interested to get involved!
Even if you do not join the board this year there is lots of room to learn about how the board functions, how we organize events and get involved!
