Annual General Meeting

3

If you are a financial Member of the Wandoan Show Society you have the right to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting. Your Show needs you, please mark your calendar and attend this meeting!

Please do not miss this opportunity to became actively involved in planning the 2022 show. That has started already!!!

Many, many hours of hard work go into producing the annual community showcase which you all are part of. Consider sharing in some of this planning. Many of you already steward and volunteer, but there are some faces we would really love to see come forward. We are all "BUSY", however if more people come forward, it would just allow everyone to shoulder the load a lot more easily.

It is essential that Management Committee members refresh - that brings new ideas, and enthusiasm for creating the great show we are all love. Please don't leave it all to the same old few..... our ideas are running out!

What happens at the AGM?

An annual general meeting (AGM) is a meeting held once a year that all members of the Wandoan Show Society are invited to attend. The purpose of an AGM is to give members a report on activities and finances for the previous year, to allow time for members to ask questions, and to elect members of our governing body (e.g. committee members) for the coming year.

All executive positions are declared VACANT at the AGM and nominations to fill these positions for the next show year are now being accepted.

The Management Committee includes President, Snr & 2 x Jnr Vice Presidents, Chief Secretary, Treasurer, Chief Stewards for the  Show Sections of Willacy Pavilion, Jerrard Pavilion & Juandah Pavilion, Ring, Stud Cattle, Prime Cattle, Space Steward, Bar Steward & Gate Steward and, finally, Showgirl/Rural Ambassador Coordinator

It has become evident that primary positions have grown to a size where they must be split into smaller tasks and be shared amongst several volunteers. We sincerely hope that some of you will recognize your talents and offer to support your local show.
