Chinook Country 2020 AGM

  

On June 16, 2020, CCHS held its Annual General Meeting via Zoom. This meeting had originally been scheduled for March 24. A review of the past year’s activities was undertaken as well as the actions taken and plans changed since Covid-19 made its appearance on the scene. Our plans for the next year were outlined with caveats due to the current restrictions on large gatherings. The attendees were treated to a showing of the five-minute long pilot video that was developed to illustrate the Digital Walking Tour Initiative we will work on through next year.


Financials for the year ended December 31, 2019 were reviewed and the members were presented with the budget for 2020, which was unanimously approved. The members were informed about the effects that reduced funding will have on the organization’s ability to carry on its activities but that it will live within its means under the budget presented.


If you have any questions, please email us at info@chinookhistory.ca.


The election of Directors for the year were held and the following individuals constitute the Board of CCHS for the next year:


Executive

Jackie Kleiner, President

Walt DeBoni, Past–President

Megan Ballard, 1st Vice President

Kari Burgess, Treasurer

Graeme Miller, Secretary


Directors at Large
