Sound Rowers & Paddlers Members, Race Directors and Board Members,
 
Our annual meeting is this Saturday morning (Dec 6th) at 10:00 AM at the Lake Washington Rowing Club.  The annual meeting is an excellent place to have a say in the future of the organization as well as a good opportunity to understand how we operate.  The meeting is open to members and non-members but only members can vote on issues and elections.  I do my best to run an efficient meeting, but everyone must realize that trying to address a years worth of developments in one meeting can take time. 
 
The meeting is to be held at:
The Lake Washington Rowing Club www.lakewashingtonrowing.com
910 N. North Lake Way
Seattle, WA 98109
 
We will be meeting in Celebration Hall on the second floor.  I'll have signs pointing you in the right direction.  You are welcome to bring any refreshments you feel appropriate. 
 
Here are a few key Items that you may need to review prior to the meeting:
1) I will need someone to take the minutes, transcribe them, then have them to me sometime in the next month or so.
2) We will be looking for a new volunteer to set up the race schedule for next year (2016).
3) We are looking for a new Race Director for Shaw Island- our longest running race.
4) The terms of two board of directors will expire this year and they will need to be replaced.
 
Feel free to bring a boat and use the Lake Washington Rowing Club dock for a row or paddle prior or after the meeting.  The dock is private, built by LWRC but typically open to all paddle/ rowing craft.    
 
Attached is a copy of the first draft of the agenda.  Please contact me if you have any questions, modifications or additions.
 
Thanks,
 
Tyler Peterson
