A group of sixteen AV members from the St. John’s region recently picked a sunny Thursday evening (July 6th to be exact) at Quintana’s Restaurant to launch their own Sub-Group and conduct their inaugural AGM. David Chu, Atlantic Representative on the National AV Group Executive, also came to town to update members on recent PIPSC activities and to conduct an election of the new executive.
The new St. John’s AV Sub-Group is headed by President Tim Power, with Bonnie O’Rourke serving as Vice-President and Lori Kennedy as Treasurer. Also joining these ACOA employees on the newly elected Board are Susan Evans of ACOA in the Secretary role, and Shane Curnew (ACOA) and Chris Hendry of DFO in Member at Large positions. A third Member at Large position remains vacant at present in hopes that a suitable candidate will be recruited from PSPC in the near future.
The new Sub-Group will soon be getting down to business and planning a series of lunch and learns for its 76 members and engaging with other Sub-Groups in the St. John’s area.
