AN IMPORTRANT NOTE
Given the pandemic limitations, a Zoom District Council meeting will be held on November 10, 2020 in lieu of the normal AGM. A new slate of officers for 2021 will be presented and should be voted in by the District Council members. After that meeting we should have a new and complete Executive and District Council.
