Meeting Wednesday January 18th 7 PM The American Legion in Barre
Hello to all Williamstown Fish and Game Club members!
Happy New Year to everyone! We were all hoping that this would be the first Annual meeting to be held at the clubhouse in the time that I have been involved with the club, however, as is par for the course mother nature has thrown a curve ball and the road to the club and the driveway are more ice than anything else. So we cried uncle and decided for ease and safety of us all to hold it one more time at the American Legion in Barre. For those that are not familiar with the location it is next to Domino's and across from the Lenny's plaza in downtown Barre.
With the mention of hoping to hold the meeting at the clubhouse at night in winter means that the progress on the clubhouse has come far enough to be not only fully enclosed and insulated, but that there is power to the building now!! It has been a very long road to get back to this point and the amount of work put in by the members and the contractors truly needs to be seen to be understood. There simply are not enough words to express the gratitude that I as President of this club have for everyone that has put their blood, sweat and tears into this.
On to the fun stuff for this upcoming meeting. The first thing we are going to try and check off are the elections for the year. This year is a big year for elections because it is the end of term for the President, Vice President and 4 director positions. If anyone has any questions about what is entailed in fulfilling any of those roles please reach out and I will be happy to talk you through what each position is.
The next thing is going to be to look at a calendar and set the dates for all of the events that the club holds. The list includes; the gun raffle, duck race, fishing derby, big game raffle/dinner, hunter safety courses, and anything else that we as a membership decide to do this year. During this discussion we will also discuss the items to be raffled off in the gun raffle as well as the hunt location and dinner location for the big game raffle/dinner. At the bottom of the newsletter is the calendar of events for the club that will be updated each month.
Keep your eyes on your mailboxes for a more in depth newsletter as well as membership renewal forms and raffle ticket order forms.
Thank you everyone!
