Bonivital Soccer Annual General Meeting UPDATE
Bonivital Soccer Association ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Update
March 25, 2020
Dear Members,
The unfolding coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis has significantly affected the world we live in. As destinations work to contain the spread of the virus, many countries, states, provinces and cities have banned large events. On March 15, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a guidance that all large events and mass gatherings of more than 50 people be suspended for at least eight weeks. "Large events and mass gatherings can contribute to the spread of COVID-19 in Canada via travelers who attend these events and introduce the virus to new communities". Examples of large events and mass gatherings include conferences, festivals, parades, concerts, sporting events, weddings, and other types of assemblies.
We in Winnipeg are not immune. Many, if not all of our members are under some sort of isolation. Social distancing has become one of the best ways to prevent the virus from spreading.
To that end, the Bonivital Soccer Association must announce that our Annual General Meeting, originally scheduled for Sunday, April 19, 2020 has been postponed until such a time as it is safe to do so. The health and well-being of our members and families is paramount. Bonivital Soccer will endeavor to reschedule the AGM at the earliest possible time.
Once it is deemed safe to do so, we will reissue our AGM notice, which will then take place 21 days after the announcement is made.
We appreciate your understanding in these trying times.
Bonivital Soccer Association hope you all stay healthy and safe.
Sincerely,
Jeff Mann
Executive Director
