JOINING THE COMMITTEE
Members can join the committee at the Annual Meeting. A group of about eight to ten people works well so that we can divide up areas of responsibility in order that it is not too onerous a task for just a few people. Anyone can put forward suggestions for speakers or arrange social outings, but being on the committee is a good way to get together with other members on a more regular basis.
At the Annual Meeting, the names of the committee members are displayed on a board and each WI member writes down the name of the person they would like to see as President for the coming year. Each person named is then asked if she is willing to take on the presidency. If more than one person is willing, a deciding vote is taken. From the remaining committee members, the executive officer posts are allocated, i.e. secretary and treasurer; we must have these three posts filled in order to continue to operate.
