<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Just a reminder that our monthly business meeting for January is tomorrow, Wednesday, January 17, 2018, at 8 pm. Due to the building work, the meeting will be held at the Recreation Center in Woodlot Park on New Road
(just up the road from the building). I am told we have the large room at the rear of the building. Tables and chairs will be in the room.

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">This is our first meeting of the year and will be busy. We have to go over our proposed budget and form committees.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">As always, as a squad member you should attend all meetings. I realize, however, that sometimes matters arise that make it impossible to attend. I trust that members try to attend meetings and when they ask to be excused
they have a good reason. It is not my intention to judge reasons. So, if you need to be excused, just send me an email (they need to be in writing, but email is fine); you do not have to explain the reason.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">If you are excused and do not attend the meeting, it will not impact your voting rights and your membership on the squad. It will
<u>not</u> earn you LOSAP points, you actually have to meetings for that. It also will not count to the attendance required to run for office. Too many unexcused absences will impact on your ability to vote on motions brought before the squad. It could also
lead to your removal from the squad.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Hope to see you tomorrow.</p>
