We also welcome Mohamed to the executive committee as our new VP Membership!
Our AGM’s are done for the year, and here are the new executives: Manu (Sergeant at Arms), Andy (Secretary-Treasurer), Sarah (VP Membership), Daniel (VP Education), Joanna (VP Public Relations), Fahimeh (President) and John (Webmaster). And here’s the full group of us!
Our newly elected executive committee for Monday meetings: Ross (Sergeant at Arms), Sam (President), Jess (Vice-President Education), Kat (Vice-President Membership), Tian (Secretary-Treasurer, absent). The Vice-President Public Relations and the Thursday committee will be elected at the 2nd AGM this week!
