No Screening this Saturday, 6th July 2024

No JAFWA screening until Saturday 13^th July 2024!

We are all out there enjoying life without JAFWA (if you can call such a life “enjoyable”) this week. There is some anime at the cinemas if you have been following “Blue Lock” outside of JAFWA.
JAFWA’s regular program returns on July 13^th. to give you a sense of security before the events scheduled for July 20^th.

Yes, that all important Annual General Meeting is scheduled for 2PM in the Hall before the screening of JAFWA on July 20^th, and we need all signed up JAFWA members to attend. Find out how JAFWA is doing and vote on new things for JAFWA to do.
The other big decision coming up is the JAFWA annual election to be held during the Dinner Break of the JAFWA screening of July 20^th. The 13^th is the last date for our signed up members to nominate themselves for running. So spend the next couple of weeks determining your election platform.

If you don’t want to sponsor an entire night like Lindsay did in March, and the one coming in November, there is the other scheme for our signed up members. On the night nearest your birthday, you can nominate something to play during the Dinner Break (limited to 30 minutes max). You may have to help us source this material, so plan and inform us in advance please.

AGM Adenda item

Fellow JAFWA Member,

The JAFWA Board of Committee formally announces that on 20 July 2024 – the day of the JAFWA 2024 AGM – the Board will propose changes to the JAFWA Constitution and By-Laws to update how the club operates and how the Committee may operate.

The details to be discussed at the AGM are:

• Changes to the wording of section 8 of the By-Laws regarding the usage of Cheques to move monies of a value of greater than $100, and associated terminology, to be updated to include the electronic transfer of funds and associated terminology; and
• Clarification as to whom the JAFWA committee may loan monies, the terms of the amount loaned, and instances where said loans require the approval of the JAFWA Membership.

These details will be clarified at the AGM, however to ensure that we have a greater number of members available to vote, the vote will be by SGM to be held at 6:00pm during the dinner break.

Date: 20/07/2024
Time: 6:00pm
Location: Collins Street Centre South Perth
