The Club’s 2011 Annual General Meeting will be held on Wednesday, 1 February 2012, at 6.30 pm in the Members’ Dining Room at the MCG.
Is anyone else going?
I've been the last few years and I know a couple of you others have gone as well and I must say, while not the most exciting trip to the 'G it's a good chance to get some insight that you wouldn't normally hear.
If it's like the last few years you could expect something like the following:
You get the chance to mingle with club official, players and coaches.
You hear from key members of the board. Jimmy has been there cracking (sometimes morbid) jokes and doing an intro and Don Mclardy has a bit of a talk.
The Finance guy will talk about money's for a bit (not a highlight if I'm completely honest).
Strategy for the current year and beyond while reviewing 2011.
Cam Schwab and Coach will make a speech, telling us what they are up to. Bail's was always really insightful, talking about pre season so far and who's coming on well.
New Draftee introduction.
Last year the Captain and leadership group spoke.
QandA.
And at the end they make you sing the song.... This part is um... At least their is no trumpet.
I plan on going again, it's open to anyone who had a 2011 membership and I strongly recommend it. goes for only an hour or two.
