Graham Bantock has suggested that I alert UK owners to some IOMICA prospective candidate statements available on the IOMICA forum - go to this link http://www.iomclass.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1395
If, after reading the candidate statements, any GBR owner would like to change his vote, then he/she can do so by simply submitting another voting paper
to me. I am pleased to be able to advise that I am now getting a steady stream of votes from GBR owners. Thank you to those owners for their support. |

Two email mailshots were completed yesterday, one to club secretaries and one to individual owners. My apologies for referring to the 2008 AGM in the subject
line of the email top the owners. Unfortunately, this year I didn't have time to fully sort out the database routines that create the email mailshots. I
had 6 "failure to deliver" reports in respect of the club secretary email batch and about 70 out of the 350 odd emails sent to owners. As of 11.00am this morning, I would like to thank 9 "early bird" owners for having submitted a vote to me. I have also made some changes to the initial paragraph below - initially I had indicated a date of 24th May for owners to update their information. I have now
modified the date for submitting owner information for this AGM. However, to save time for future AGMs, it would be useful for owners to continuously update their
personal and boat information with the Class Association. |

26/05/2009 IOMICA AGM 2009 back to top |
The 2009 IOMICA AGM will be held at the IOM World Championships at Barbados on 23rd June. This year there are 7 resolutions one of which deals with
elections for two IOMICA Executive Officers, 3 are
concerned with changes to the Class Rules, 2 deal with changes to IOMICA's constitution and finally, one tasks the IOMICA Executive with investigating whether the Class
should affiliate to ISAF as an international class. The Notice of the AGM, Agenda and accompanying
information may be found at IOMICA - 2009 AGM
Although I did not stand for class secretary at the MYA AGM last year, I have undertaken to deal with the GBR vote for this AGM. This decision was made just prior to IOMICA's deadline for submitting NCA voting strengths. This late decision has affected the ability of GBR owners to update their information - however, the computer database has been maintained and required little update work to prepare a reasonably current list. The schedule for NCA for GBR Owners in respect of preparing for and voting in the 2009 AGM is as follows: prior to Tuesday 16th June by Tuesday 16th June Click on the link below for detailed arrangements: by Sunday 24th May |
