What a year it’s been! The BC Swing Dance, in its 21st year, has seen record numbers, has experimented with new dance locations, hosted an intensive by BAMEO, and held a dozen dances.
AGM (and Free Pizza) INFO
Join us on Saturday, February 9th for our Annual General Meeting. We will be recapping the year and talking about what the executive board’s been up to, have a full panel of board members to answer your questions about the club (and inevitably talk about the music), and be electing new board members for the 2019/2020 year.
As you may know, the BC Swing Dance Club is a non-profit club entirely run by the volunteers comprising the Board of Executives. This club hosts the largest West Coast Swing dance in BC (outside of Swingcouver) monthly, which requires promotion, organization, and pure volunteer hours to keep it going and growing.
Some members of the current board have put in their time and are retiring from their positions after years of volunteering. There is a need for new board members to take their place to ensure the club can properly run and put on the events that we plan every year.
If you are a member of the BC Swing Dance Club, you are eligible to take part in the AGM and vote on the board of directors. And, *YOU* are also eligible to be on the board of directors. Every position is up for election every year, including President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and members at large, and we need people to step into these positions.
So, please come to the AGM, enjoy the complimentary pizza that will be provided, and put your name into the hat for a rewarding volunteer position that will help shape West Coast Swing in the lower mainland (and maybe farther soon!). WE WANT YOU!
