You can make a difference

There are a number of opportunities for members to join a KAS Committee and get involved and interested in the many archaeological and historical things happening. Details of the Committees – what they do and who to contact – can be found by going to www.kentarchaeology.org.uk and following the links, or email secretary@kentarchaeology.org.uk.

2011 A.G.M. Saturday 14th May, Guildhall Museum at Rochester.

As well as joining a Committee, as a KAS member you can nominate the members of the Council and the Society’s officers for election at the Annual General Meeting. Any five members can propose a candidate for election as a member of Council or as an officer. Nominations have to be received in writing by the Hon. General Secretary by the 1st March 2011 at the latest and must be accompanied by the written consent of the candidate. If there are more candidates than vacancies there will be a postal ballot.

Our President, Chris Pout, will not be seeking re-election. The Council will nominate a candidate for election as President. However, members may put forward their own nominations, as mentioned above. The new President will have the challenge of leading the Society in an era of great change.

Further information can be obtained from the Hon. General Secretary, Peter Stutchbury, Lympne Hall, Lympne, Kent, CT21 4LQ; email secretary@kentarchaeology.org.uk. Although an application form does not have to be used, he can supply a suitable form. The results of the elections will be announced at the A.G.M. More details of the A.G.M. will be in the April Newsletter.
