AGM

Dear All,

This is a little advanced notice of our AGM which will be held in the University on Wednesday the 30th January 2008 at 7.30pm. (Exact venue to follow)

We will be recapping the activity of the society and you will have the opportunity to stand for election to the committee. The committee is responsible for organising events and administering the society. All nominations should be sent to 9404002l@student.gla.ac.uk no later than the 23rd of January.

We will be in particular need of committee members this year as so many are 5th years who will be moving on to greater things! Of course those who want to will be welcome to stand again!! To be elected to the committee, you must be a medical student at the University of Glasgow or a practising doctor with an interest in Wilderness Medicine. Committee meetings are held approximately every 2 months and are most commonly held in the pub, which makes the whole business much more pleasurable!! Its not too much of a commitment, after all we're all busy people with PBL and Case Studies to do and what not!!

We will have the following posts on the committee this year:

President - All seeing eye with their finger on the pulse of the society - a strong and dynamic leader...

Vice President - Lacky/deputy/supervisor etc of the above

Secretary - A keen legal mind - or alternatively someone with a notepad who can take notes of what happens at meetings and write a letter or 2, or 3, or...

Treasurer - Keeper of the Society's Purse, must be able to master the intricate working of the Bank of Scotland, which believe me is a strange netherworld, possibly in a universe parallel to our own

Events Coordinator - Contacts, contacts, contacts and ideas and stuff

Representative Committee Members - No specific job but none the less vital to the well oiled machinery that is the GUWMS

Well, we hope to see you all there on the 30th and just in case there was a bribe needed, we'll be having a "social" afterwards in a reputible drinking establishment near by with food if we can scrounge it...

All the best

GUWMS Committee
