June 2013 Annual General Meeting:

The BOSS AGM took place on the afternoon of Saturday 8th June, and what a successful afternoon we had. The children who came along with their parents really enjoyed Rosies Disco, as well as a lot of running around in the sunny garden! And most importantly, BOSS welcomed a new Chairperson and Treasurer! We would like to extend a very warm welcome to our incoming Chairperson, Lisa Johnston, and our incoming Treasurer, Louise Lauchlan. Welcome on board. And thanks to everyone who made the effort to come to the AGM. It would also be appropriate to offer grateful thanks to Dawn Mahal and Katherine Lynch, the outgoing Chairperson and Treasurer, who worked tirelessly (and voluntarily!) to improve standards and to guide BOSS through some very challenging times. Their efforts truly went above and beyond the call of duty. Both Dawn and Katherine will continue to be part of the Committee, as will all the members of the Committee as at the time of the AGM. Committee roles are available to view on the BOSS website and the Facebook page. Please do get in touch if youd like to informally discuss any aspect of the Committee. You could speak to Morag who can pass your query on to the Committee and we can get back to you. Or you could email: Bossmanagementcommittee@yahoo.co.uk.
