AGM Election Results

Sincere thanks to all the members who came to the 
2018 Annual General Meeting.  

President Kim Anderson delivered a wonderful, and very thoughtful talk about the many initiatives the Society took on last year.  Kim thanked all the volunteers who made it happen, and gave special recognition to the 2017 Executive team - each of whom brought their individual skills and abilities to the table to ensure the success of the whole.  

It is really phenomenal the amount of work that was accomplished and the Tahsis Community Garden thrives because of the dedication of its caring members.  

Sincere thanks to the 2017 Tahsis Community Garden Society Executive, from the left, Terry Fassbender (seated), Silvie Keen, Kim Anderson, Maureen Roth and Rita Dawson. 



The 2017 Executive stepped down (directors Catherine Gordon and Patricia Rice in absentia) and 
the 2018 Election was held.  

All those nominated agreed to stand and were elected by acclamation, pictured below.

 On behalf of all members of the Tahsis Community Garden Society, the new Executive extends its sincere thanks to Janet Kirsop of the Tahsis Seniors Society for making its centre available to us for the meeting.  Attendees enjoyed a really nice lunch spread with lots of fresh veggies and salads.
