February 29, 2024 AGM Results
Published Date: 2024-03-01 12:30:00

Good Morning Everyone,

Last night we held our 2024 Annual General Meeting which was attended by a great group of members, a larger number than many of the previous AGM's, thanks to everyone who took time out of their day to come out. 

Last night the membership voted and approved an increase in membership fees, the first such change since 2015. This equates to an increase of $20.00 per member regardless of classification. This was done to keep up with increasing operating costs to the club, the basic rate of spousal and junior members no longer covered these basic costs. Details will appear as a pop up screen and can be viewed on the Membership Information page. 

This was my 10th and final term as President of the St. John's Rod and Gun Club. It has been a long stretch with many projects accomplished, but it is time for a break and a fresh face and new ideas. I'm proud to announce that 2023 SJRGC Director George Jenner was voted in uncontested and is our new club president. George and the new executive will do a fantastic job running the club and keeping it the premier club and shooting facility in Atlantic Canada. 

Thank you to all SJRGC members for your support and confidence over the past 10 years, it certainly means a lot to me. I will of course stay on as Past President and will continue with some of the duties I have taken on over the past decade. Please check the Contact Us page to view the 2024 SJRGC Executive Board members.  

Mike Smith

Past President SJRGC
