AGM November 2014

November 2nd~ AGM

Our AGM was held this year at the Burnaby Mountain Clubhouse | 7600 Halifax Street, Burnaby from Noon to 3 PM.  This meeting marked the 58th Annual General Meeting for the

Clan MacLeod Society of Greater Vancouver.

First on the agenda was the election of Officers and Directors, then….

 Neil told us about the 2014 Parliament and passed around photos of the attendees.  Sounded like everyone had a lot of fun at the varied and interesting events.  The great non traditional Highland weather enhanced everyone's enjoyment.  BC was well represented at Parliament by Neil and June McLeod, Judy Tipple, Dr. Don and Chris McLeod and their family.

  Ian entertained the Clan MacLeod members with a few anecdotes and a brief history of Canada’s Independence.  He also passed around 3 samples of the Clan MacLeod Tartan he designed (see separate item on the MacLeod Canada Tartan).

 Dr. Don McLeod gave an enthusiastic presentation for the North American Clan Gathering planned for July 2016 in Merritt.  Check out the website  http://www.clan-macleod.de/ for all the details.
