[CUCBC Captains] Notification of Lent Term Meeting

[Charlie Prior]

Dear Captains,

The Lent term meeting of the Cambridge University Combined Boat Clubs will
be held on *Sunday 22nd January 2017 at 5pm* in the Audit Room of King's
College. In accordance with Statute 12, a copy of any motion proposed for
decision at the meeting must be sent to cucbc at cucbc.org by* 5pm on Thursday
19th January 2017 at the latest*. I intend to give notice of the agenda by
5pm on Friday 20th January 2017.

Provisional dates for the remaining general meetings of 2016/17 are as
follows:
Sunday 26th February 2017 -- pre-Lents meeting
Sunday 23rd April 2017 -- Easter term meeting
Sunday 11th June 2017 -- pre-Mays meeting

I would like to take this opportunity also to draw your attention to
statute 10 of the CUCBC constitution. In particular,

   - Regarding quorum: *"That no business shall be conducted unless there
   be at least fifteen members present excluding the Chairman."*
   - Regarding voting rights:* "Each College Club shall have one vote for
   each of its Men's and Women's Clubs."* Note particularly that this means
   each College has only a *maximum of two votes* on motions, regardless of
   how many captains they have. *Each individual vote must be cast by an
   individual captain present at the meeting.*

I look forward to seeing you all.

Sincerely,
Charles Prior
