Purpose, structure, and operations of the board
The Board works in partnership with the City of Thunder Bay's Recreation and Culture Division staff in the provision of daily drop in activities to Thunder Bay participants at the Centre.
The Supervisor - Community Programs (Older Adults) will attend Board meetings as a non-voting member to act as a resource to the Board.
Board members must represent the best interests of the Centre as a whole and not only specific clubs or activities to which they belong.
Meetings
The board of directors meets on the second Thursday of every month, with exception of July. Special meetings can be called in accordance with the board of director bylaws. The board of directors meetings are closed to directors of the board and invited guests. At all meetings, business is conducted in accordance with Robert's Rules of Order.
The annual general meeting is typically held on the third Wednesday of March. The annual general meeting is a closed meeting. Only current voting membership and invited guests can attend. A voting member form (annual $5 fee, or $25 lifetime fee) can be obtained at the Centre’s front desk and must be filled out no later than 10 days prior to the AGM.
