OMVA Swap Meet & AGM March 12th 2016

[Barry Churcher]

Hi Stuart

There is no confusing part. We must have an AGM as it is required as per our bylaws and to confirm the new executive. The meeting will start between 11:00 and 12:00 as the hall is only rented as per usual until 12:00. If we have the meeting at another time and date, few would show up. As in other years, there is a mass exodus before 12:00 anyway.

You are correct, Peter is the point of contact for the event. He can be reached by PM through this forum.

I hope this helps. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Sat. March 12.

Barry

Barry,
You are correct. Perhaps the timing and venue may be off for many members of OMVA, but all are entitled to vote on the executive and express their wishes and motion for which direction they consider OMVA should proceed, for the benefit of all members.

Looks as though there is a lot to get done in the 30 minute meeting but wondering if some discussion about Aquino Tank Day should be included. The invitation for OMVA members to attend with vehicles is a great opportunity to participate in a very unique and well organized event that would be a rewarding experience for all. For those OMVA members who plan on being there with or without vehicles, perhaps an organized or more visible presence should be considered.
Cheers, Terry.

Greetings guys. I am planning on vending at the OMVA swap as per my usual.
Bringing with me a bunch of heavier, bulky items that I normally leave at home.
Please see my post under the For sale section for details and PM ahead of time for wants if interested.
Thanks Chris

Hi Les,

This morning at the meeting Mary-Lou Vanrooy brought up the question on opening an OMVA page on Facebook. At that time you said we do not have a page. I see someone has taken the liberty to make one and is using the organizations crest and name as its open to public Facebook page and appears to have 10 members? Someone is keeping a secret....

Here is a thread on this very site discussing it:

There must be some kind of conspiracy going on...
No secrets here, I created a FB page for anyone to use when I was but interim President. It is there to use, go to it.
As far as I know it is open for use for whomever wants to run with it. Sorry I am not a tech savvy Facebook user and must have been occupied when it was brought up today. It was introduced but never used and I think the name or domain is there for use still.
