Greetings.

The Owen Sound Cross Country Ski Club (OSCCSC) will be holding a virtual General Meeting on Wednesday June 23 at 7:00 pm on the Zoom platform.

The purpose of this meeting is to:

•             Update club members on the membership and financial status of the club,

•             Elect new volunteer members to the OCCSC Executive Committee and,

•             Transition to a new President, as I will be retiring after 20 years as OSCCSC President.

The current Executive comprises the following volunteers:

Chris Hughes- President

Kelly Rogers – Secretary/Registrar

Brent Radbourne – Treasurer

Carl Sadler – Trail Manager

Gary Shute – Assistant Trail Manager

Jim Pappas – Member at Large

Brian Goodings – Member at Large

Secretary/Registrar Kelly Rogers has volunteered to take on the role of President, and unless there are any challengers, shall be acclaimed as President on June 23rd.

Aimee Vereecke has kindly volunteered to take over the position of Secretary/Registrar from Kelly Rogers and will also be acclaimed unless there is another candidate.

The current Treasurer, Trail Manager and Assistant Trail Manager shall also be acclaimed for these positions unless there are any challengers for these positions.

The Club Executive is seeking a club member to take on the new position of Vice-President to assist the President.

If more than one club member seeks one of the executive positions there will be an election during the June 23, 2021 meeting, by a show of hands.

The Ski Club is also seeking volunteers to assist with the trail grooming. Trail grooming instruction will be provided, but volunteer groomers should have some experience with snowmobiles and be comfortable working alone on the trails.

To volunteer for any of these positions please respond to this email and we will include your name on the agenda for the June 23 meeting.

An agenda for the meeting is attached.

Greetings.

Due to the continuing warm weather the Massie Hills trails ski season is officially over.

I would like to thank all our new and continuing ski club members for a record-breaking season.

I would also like to thank our dedicated volunteers who groom the trails, keep track of memberships and send out the fobs and stickers and keep track of the ski club funds and make sure our bills get paid.

Have a great Spring, Summer and Fall and we will see you again next winter.

Thanks,

Chris

The Massie Hills trails received about 6 cm of snow overnight and the grooming crew is out this morning. They will do the best they can with it but the underlying base is pretty firm.

Thanks,

The trails are being groomed and track-set this morning and may be a little fast. Enjoy!
