TFAM AGM
Friday, October 7 - 4 PM
TFAM held its Annual General Meeting at the Cre8ery Gallery, 125 Adelaide Street, Winnipeg, on Friday, October 07, 2022, at 4:00 p.m. For those members who could not attend in person, we also had Zoom access. This was our first in-person/virtual meeting and over-all went pretty well.  It will take some getting used to as it isn't always easy to remember to repeat all questions for the Zoom attendees before answering the questions.  Something to get used to going forward.

The Meeting
34 members attended the AGM this year, a great turn-out with 26 in-person!  They also got to see  the TFAM Member Show exhibit, Five Years of Fibre.
Attendees heard about TFAM plans for this new season, including details about the new 2023 exhibit which is now open for 'Intent to Enter'. 
We had four great door prizes.  Congratulations to Leona Herzog, Linda Bailey, 
Esther Fransen and Margaret Bertulli, who won the draws.

All of the AGM documents were emailed to members on September 20, 2022 but can also be viewed here.
