AGM and Visit to Albert Lock:
As advised the IWAI Carrick Branch AGM will take place this Saturday 16th November 2019 @ 13.30 hrs in the Bush Hotel. The Agenda and Draft Minutes of AGM 2018 are included on email. Please be advised that Executive Committee nominations will be taken from the floor at this meeting.
Prior to the AGM itself and as previously advised we have arranged, with Waterways Ireland, a visit to Albert Lock Chamber at 10.00 hrs on Saturday. Members are advised that Brian Tracey, Waterway Ireland will give a health and safely briefing at 10.00 hrs before members can descend into the chamber itself. Please bring a life jacket with you. You are also advised as the lock chamber will be wet and muddy that suitable footwear should be worn. If you wish to attend and have yet to advise me please email me at iwaicarrick@gmail.com.
For your convenience I attach road directions to Albert Lock (click link).
Following the Lock Visit members are invited to lunch (soup and sandwiches) in the Bush Hotel at 12.30 hrs. AGM will take place immediately following lunch.
On a separate issue IWAI President, Alan Kelly, has advised of the following:
IWN: Colin Becker announced his intention to step down as Editor of IWN from Spring 2020. We are now actively seeking expressions of interest from within the Association for Colin’s replacement.
Should you have an interest and the skills to take on this very important role, please contact president@iwai.ie or alternatively let me know of your interest at the AGM and I will advised Alan accordingly.
