Committee Update - Meeting dates for 2019; BSFG Newsletter

21/1/2019

0 Comments

 
The BSFG Committee had its first meeting for the year last Wednesday and there are a couple of resolutions to advise you about.

Leading up to Christmas, December is a difficult time for people to attend General Meetings.  January is also a time when people are often away.  The Committee therefore resolved to have only five General Meetings per year.  General Meetings will now be on the 4th Thursday of March, May, July, September and November.

The Committee will continue to meet six times a year on the second Tuesday of February, April, June, August, October and December.

The Committee has been discussing the replies we had to the Newsletter Survey and felt it was time to indicate a deadline for submission of articles for the next newsletter.  Articles of about 200 words about an environmentally themed topic would be suitable for the Newsletter.  Perhaps something you are personally interested in including actions you are taking to live more sustainably.  Your thoughts about major environmental issues which are important to you.  Are we dealing with these issues adequately?  Politics gives plenty of scope for commentary on environmental issues.

The deadline for the next Newsletter is Sunday February 17th.  You can submit articles to Peter Maddock via email peter_maddock@iprimus.com.au  Thank you to members who completed the Newsletter Survey.  There is certainly interest from members in continuing with the Newsletter.
