The 2021 Annual General Meeting of the Kamloops Amateur Radio Club was called to order at 7:56pm on May 6, 2021.

Resolutions:

  1. Motion by Myles Bruns, VE7FSR that due to the increasing operating costs of maintaining and improving the Club's infrastructure, the cost of RAC affiliation for non-RAC members, and increasing insurance costs, that the annual membership fees be increased from $30 to $40, effective September 2021.  The fee for each additional family member at the same address would increase to $20, effective September 2021.
  • Seconded by Lee Woldanski, VE7FET.
  • Passed unanimously.

  • Passed unanimously.
  1. Motion by Myles Bruns, VE7FSR, that a new policy be created whereby any new member who joins the KARC within three months of a new membership year (memberships are renewed annually in September) will have their membership fee carried forward and will not have to renew again until the following year.  
  • Seconded by Jordan Mohle, VE7OSX.
  • Passed unanimously.

Chuck Hays, VE7PJR, was recognized for his service to the club as our Net Control station for the Tuesday and Wednesday evening 2M nets.  Chuck was presented with a plaque as a gesture of our appreciation for his many hundreds of hours of volunteer time.  Thank you, Chuck!
