Mentor of ARISIASpecial Bulletin September 1999 |
This bulletin contains only announcements. Minutes of the previous meetings will be forthcoming, probably after the Special Meeting.
Special Meeting Notice
The Executive Board of Arisia regrets, but accepts as a fact of life, that notification of the Annual Meeting was not given in accordance with the Bylaws, and therefore the normal business of the Annual Meeting could not be conducted as planned.
Instead, there will be a Special Meeting in lieu of the Annual Meeting on Sunday, October 3, 1999, at 2:00 PM, at MIT Building 66. Please make every effort to attend. If you are unable to attend, please send a proxy.
Annual corporate dues of $24 are due no later than the beginning of the Special Meeting. You may mail a check to the Arisia address (Arisia Inc, Building 600, PMB 322, One Kendall Square, Cambridge MA 02139), or bring payment to the meeting. If you are unable to pay at this time, but wish to remain an active member, please contact the treasurer, Skip Morris, at treasurer@arisia.org or 603-888-5567. If you have not paid or made other provisions before the start of the meeting, you will not be able to vote at the meeting.
