A note on the committee

We have instituted the“Knowledge Bank”. This is made up of experienced members willing to guide and teach those who would like to take on an executive or committee role but lack experience or knowledge of organisations and arts events. So don’t be deterred; involvement is an opportunity to grow.

SAV elects its committee each year at the AGM. The committee currently consists of:

• ·       President
• ·       Treasurer/Membership/ Minutes
• ·       Secretary /public officer
• ·       Three general committee members.

We are seeking to expand this to include:

• ·       Vice President
• ·       Administrator
• ·       general committee members with event proposals

Each year, all committee positions are vacated and any financial member may nominate/be nominated for election for any committee position.

Positions are voluntary and not remunerated. Members will be asked to commit to attending a minimum number of committee meetings (usually by teleconference). A position on the committee is rewarding but it does require you to make a commitment of time and energy to advancing the interests of the membership.

Looking forward to a feisty, fast and creative meet followed by celebratory drinks at Yand Js or some other mutually agreeable watering hole!
