June 30th marks the end of
another fiscal year for Garden City Productions and we look forward
to starting another season, beginning with our Annual General
Meeting in September. The date this year is September 18th –
2.00pm
at the Barn. The Board of Directors looks forward to seeing many of
you in attendance, this meeting represents the work the Board has
accomplished and you will hear their individual reports on the work
they provide for Garden City Productions. It is also a chance for
you to express your views, ideas, suggestions and any topic you feel
is worthy to benefit our Company that we may continue as a viable
organization. We will also listen to grumbles too and will certainly
take all topics under consideration for the betterment of Garden
City Productions. There are three positions coming available on the
Board, each for a three year term. The Board welcomes interested
applicants that would like to put their names forward for election
and wish to work for Garden City Productions in the business
capacity of the Company. In order to be eligible to run for
election, it is required that you are a paid up member as of June
30th, 2010 and have been a member in good standing from June 30th
2009 – the memberships must have been paid each year by these two
dates in order to have the one complete year necessary. The Board is
pleased to announce that Mavis Rodgers has kindly accepted the
position of Nominating Chairperson and we ask that you send your
name and bio to her allowing your name to
stand for election. The bios will be submitted for inclusion in the
August Grapevine, along with the proxy votes for those that have
voting privileges. We will be producing a hard copy of the Grapevine
for all members for the August edition, which will also include the
membership password change. The Board looks forward to hearing from
members that would like to become part of the business end of the
Company, it does require work, commitment and dedication but
certainly has it’s rewards.
Just a reminder on the Newsletter, remember it
is on the member’s only section of the GCP Website and will be
posted the first week of every month. Please do not forget to go
into the site, it is there for you on a monthly basis.
Many thanks must go to John
Koerner and his helpers, Kari Syri and Rob Audette who have recently
given our Barn a much needed coat of paint on the outside – John
maintains our Barn so well, of course he is very proud of our home
and certainly keeps it in immaculate shape.
There is much excitement for
our Fall Production “A Chorus Line” Diane Hom and Sandi Syri, our
Producers, are once again working hard and everything is falling
into place nicely. Auditions are the week-end of August 13th to the
15th and all info is on the GCP Website. Much success to all who
audition. The Board wishes our Producers all the very best as they
embark on another great Show for GCP.
Until
next time
