AGM 2011

<< < (2/9) > >>

Livia:
The AGM so far I understood will take place in a pub close to the dodder (not dogger ;) )
Matt fill us in :)
So people could meet up there, have some nice dinner + pints and watch the game!

Shower issue, is the sports centre open saturday and are people maybe able to have showers there? I have to admit it will be pretty tight schedule to get home shower and come back if you're not living close to Campus. How about delaying the AGM to 8pm?

Just some suggestions...

Evan:
Sports centre is only open until 5 on Saturday. As for the time, why not just meet at the boat house an hour earlier than normal so that you get the extra hour that way? Or, since its the last trip of the year, do a boatercross at the boxes in Lucan or something else that won't take as long as a full river trip

JODY:
Why not have it in town? I know its late to be suggesting locations but i'm not a voting member so i wasnt exactly following the AGM threads. It would be nice if more people could make an appearance & since the match is on i'd assume alot of people would be heading to town after anyway.

Actually I would say the majority of Agms I've been at have been either on a thursday or saturday. Most people would have their weeks scheduled around club events anyway. If you want to make a meeting you make the meeting, if want to do something else that's what you'll do.
 I would point out that this has been up since the 23rd of march, you'd think you might have made an issue of it sooner?
 No day would suit me as I live down country. Saturday doesn't suit me but I know I will be at my nieces birthday then can come up and do some work in UCD before the meeting. In otherwords I modify my plans to make a meeting not expect others to change their plans to suit me!

I've made an issue with it as soon as I found out when the Heineken Cup game is. Also, the date has been set, but I think the time was only put up on the 28th March. The last time it got run on a saturday after the club trip was in 2005. (maybe 06, I missed that one)

I'm posting because a change would suit me, but I wouldnt bother if it was just me. A lot of active club members will want to watch that game.
 The Match starts @ 6, pushing the AGM start time out to 8.30 would give folks a chance to do both in the same day, and facilitate those who want to watch the match, and make it easier for paddlers who want to go out after to go home and get cleaned up beforehand.

kmck:
I've been around a little bit longer than 2006! It was on the board since the 23rd, your only making the point that it interfers with a club trip as a secondary point to when the match is on. If it was a major issue you would have raised it before now.
Since they've picked a date, maybe they can move the time a little later in the evening or as Evan suggested run the trip earlier to give people more time.
Plus by the looks of things they are going to a pub, I'm just guessing it will be on TV, I could be wrong since it's been a long time since I was in a pub. You're talking about 30 min for the AGM if everyone is sober/ish.
