Call for Annual General Meeting 2010

The annual general meeting of BLUS will take place on Tuesday 30 March at 20:00 in Studenterhuset!
The AGM is the highest authority of BLUS. This is where proposed statutory amendments are voted on, and where a new board is elected. We do need new people on the board, so if you’re interested in BLUS and doing a bit of volunteer organizational work, now’s your chance! If you’re unsure if running for the board is right for you, feel free to ask us any question via email or directly to any of the current board members at Studenterhuset.
The agenda for the AGM will be as follows:
  1. Election of chairperson and keeper of the minutes
  2. Activity report
  3. Financial report
  4. Statutory amendments
  5. Election of board
  6. Election of auditor + alternate
  7. Any other business
Any proposals for statutory amendments must be presented to the board no later than two weeks before the AGM (preferably by email). Also, only members who joined BLUS no later than two weeks prior to the AGM are eligible to vote. The current statutes can be found here (only in Danish).
There will be refreshment available at the meeting and we hope to see as many as possible!

Thank you!

2009 is coming to an end, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported BLUS and helped out during our many events this year. We’ve had many new people join, and Tuesday nights at Studenterhuset are now more popular than ever. In 2009, BLUS has also taken steps to strengthen our relations with other organizations, both nationally and internationally. We aim to continue working with such organizations as LGBT Ungdom and IGLYO in 2010, and also ANSO whose annual conference BLUS will be hosting during the summer of 2010.

We are also planning to continue the great tradition of numerous entertaining and educational events at Studenterhuset, including parties, workshops, open stage nights and lectures. Another important event coming up in a few months is the Annual General Meeting of BLUS, at which the activities and finances of the year will be reviewed, and a new board will be elected. Maybe you should run? :)

Of course, all of this will not be possible without your support! We call on you, our members, to help us out in the new year in any way you can. We will be sending a more formal invitation soon, in which members are encouraged to volunteer for at least one of the activities planned for 2010. If you’re dying to start helping out, please drop us a line at info (at) blus (dot) dk.

We want to know what you think about BLUS! Please help us improve by taking this survey. It only takes a minute!

Thank you for a great year! Happy holidays from your BLUS board!

Board update

It is with sadness that we announce that Jeroen Roosen and Michael Vad have decided to resign from the BLUS board effective immediately, as they are both leaving the country. As a consequence, Bo Refsgaard Pedersen has been asked and has accepted to step up from deputy status to full board member. We wish both Jeroen and Michael the best of luck and welcome Bo (back) on the board!
