SPBA Annual General Meeting

AGM imageThe Saskatchewan Pipe Band Association is holding its Annual General Meeting on Saturday, April 27.  If you are able to join in person we will be meeting at CB132 at the College Avenue Campus in Regina.  If you are joining via ZOOM the particulars are included in the AGENDA heading.  I will attempt to have the meeting open a few minutes in advance so hopefully everyone can join prior to 1pm so that we can start on time.  

Please review the agenda in advance and advise if there are any additions.  

Member bands are required to have at least one representative at the AGM via teleconference. 

If you haven't received information about the meeting and would like to attend, please contact us: school@saskpipebands.org
