Just a reminder that the Annual Meeting of the Hanover Seaside Club will be held on Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 2:00 pm in the Club Dining Room. All regular members in good standing (2012 dues paid) are encouraged to attend.

Several changes in our methods of bookkeeping and financial controls will be discussed. At the request of several members, a CPA firm was hired to look into the Club’s books. Grady Windham of Windham & Henderson hopes to be on hand to discuss his compilation of the 2011 books. If he is not available, he will have a report prepared for work completed. Also at the request of the membership, the Board has hired Crystal Ahumada of KeraTech to perform all accounts receivable and accounts payable functions. Crystal will be at the meeting to answer questions about our current budget and financial controls being put in place to improve the operation of the Club. A representative from Phoenix Enviro will also attend to provide information to the membership regarding renovation needed on the 3rd floor of the Club.

If you have not done so, you will be able to volunteer to serve on one of the new Standing Committees at the meeting on Saturday. The Board’s hope is that Standing Committees will improve the overall operation of the Club, allow us to handle business in a faster and more efficient method, and allow regular and seasonal members to have input into the operation of the Hanover Seaside Club.

Elections will take place during the meeting. Two new Board members and the President, Vice President, and Secretary-Treasurer will be elected. You must attend the meeting to cast your vote and let your preference be known!

Maintenance on the website is ongoing. Hopefully all of the documents in the Member Section of the website will be available for members to view prior to the annual Meeting.
