The 2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Bay Area Orienteering Club will be held at the Point Pinole event on Sunday, April 28, 2024 from 1:00–2:00 PM. At this meeting, club members will elect officers for the coming year, hear reports on the state of the club, and discuss matters of interest to the orienteering community. Updates to the agenda will be posted here closer to the meeting.
The AGM is the opportunity for all club members to get insight into the activities of the club, and participate in discussion about its direction. I hope to see many new as well as familiar faces there.
All BAOC members are welcome — we are looking forward to a good turnout. In appreciation of your attendance, there will be a drawing for a CalOFest O-Shirt and maybe a special treat. 😊
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
See the webpage for the Point Pinole event for driving directions to the park.
