Dear Members,

We hope all of you are well and safe.  As the pandemic continues, the LUNC Board of Trustees laid out a preliminary plan to fulfill our Annual Meeting obligation.  We wanted to give everyone some early insight into the plan, so each member can participate in a way that is comfortable for them.   

Our constitution says that the Annual Meeting will occur “on or before the last Saturday of June”, which is 27 June this year.  There are two critical votes needed before we enter into the new fiscal year, which starts 1 July.  Those critical votes are 1) approval of the new budget, and 2) approval of new trustees and officers.  There will likely still be prohibitions in place on large gatherings, and even if social distancing were eased, there are many members who should not be exposed to an in-person meeting.  

The Board outlined a two-prong approach to conducting this year’s Annual Meeting.  We intend to have a mail-in vote, as well as a Zoom-type virtual meeting on 27 June.  We would send out the mail-in vote, with all the necessary documents and ballots, in plenty of time for members to fill out and either email or postal-mail them prior to 27 June.  Any member (full and associate) can participate in the Zoom-type virtual meeting, but voting members (full) can only vote once (either mail-in or during the virtual meeting).

We will update you along the way, but wanted to let you know our preliminary plan.  Please contact us if you have any questions.  Hope to see you on the Lake!

Mike Erk,
LUNC President, on behalf of the Board of Trustees
