MEETING NOTICE

May 2008

Hello members,

Our annual meeting is Tuesday June 10 at 4:00 pm - 6:30pm in the Dining Room (downstairs) at All Saints Church, 1773 Beacon Street, Brookline. The church is T accessible and metered parking is generally easy to find (see below). We are a cooperative organization and your participation is important.

In a departure from our "regular" annual meeting business agenda, this meeting will start with a presentation on legal issues for choruses, presented by Fred Yen, Professor of Law at Boston College. He will share some of his findings from the guide he is putting together for small choruses and arts organizations. Following that, we will have our annual meeting, elect Board members, discuss summer promotional projects, and solicit your input for next season.

Finally, the meeting will conclude with a potluck dinner. If you can, please plan to stay to socialize and enjoy a bite to eat with your colleagues. We provide napkins, plates, cups, etc and you should feel free to bring a hot or cold food item or dessert to share. We will have limited access to All Saints' kitchen.

Best,

Steve Smith,
GBCC Chair
