Report from your AGM June 2013

Thanks to those who came out to our Annual General Meeting which was held on June 17th at Christ Church. Here's some highlights:

• CMT was pleased to honour Brittni Kenny with our second annual Performing Arts Scholarship. Brittni is an honours student, with special skills in dance, performance and vocals. She has performed extensively both at Cawthra School of Performing Arts and in other venues. We wish her well as she goes on to study performing arts at Sheridan's Music Theatre Program. Congratulations Brittni.

• A change to the Bi-Laws was successfully proposed and accepted by the membership. This will better facilitate Mississauga city's requirements regarding the timing of our audited financials, our membership lists, etc. Henceforth, our Annual General Meeting will be held in and around the month of September.
• A Membership Karaoke Social is planned for July 26th at the Irish Club. Please RSVP your intention to attend to christinemcm@gmail.com so that we can confirm numbers and go ahead with this event. RSVP by July 1st.
• Thanks to Jack Travis who worked so hard on the program for "To Hollywood, Love Broadway"

CMT AGM June 17 Room 23 / Casting the Fall Show

Greetings CMT friends and members. This is a last reminder for you to attend the Annual General Meeting held at Christ Church on June 17th at 7:30 in Room 23. We will be voting to move the date of our AGM from June to September in the future (in order to better meet some of the requirements laid out by the City of Mississauga regarding charitable status etc.). Also, we will be honouring our newest lifetime achievement members, awarding the winner of Clarkson's Annual Performing Arts Scholarship, appointing members to the CMT Board and celebrating this extraordinary year!

We are thrilled by the sheer talent that came out to audition for our fall show. Thanks to all those involved in this momentous undertaking. This cast will blow you away! - even our very sweet pooches who came out to audition! Our title can Legally be identified in just a few more days. Check out our website on June 10 for this announcement and for the notification of our amazing cast!
