DESCRIPTION:Hilly Salmon Krone from ACT Fire & Rescue will present to Ca
 nberra Bushwalking Club members and visitors on the Emergencies App and 
 Fire and Rescue’s response to a remote rescue situation. Useful inform
 ation links: Incident Map: https://esa.act.gov.au/ - to get the updated 
 information on all emergency incidents in the ACT. Fire Danger Ratings: 
 https://esa.act.gov.au/be-emergency-ready/fire-danger-ratings - for Info
 rmation about the Fire Danger Rating system. **General Meeting** Followi
 ng the presentation, there will be a general meeting for members to vote
  on a proposed new constitution. The proposed constitution and an explan
 ation of the reason for the change and a summary of the changes are avai
 lable on the Canberra Bushwalking Club website. https://canberrabushwalk
 ingclub.org/about-us/governance-policies/new-constitution/ The current C
 BC Constitution was first written many years ago in the 1960s. While min
 or updates have been made since, the last being in November 2020, the Co
 mmittee has concerns as to whether it is still legally compliant and fit
  for purpose. The proposed Constitution will bring CBC in line with curr
 ent Model Rules and legislation for associations such as ours. It was wr
 itten for CBC by Synergy Law, who specialise in governance, so we can be
  confident it will give us a legally sound and comprehensive framework f
 or managing CBC on a day-to-day basis, and for managing difficult situat
 ions such as disputes. Only members can vote, and for the motion to pass
  at least 75% of members present at the meeting must support it. It is a
  high threshold; however it is the threshold required by law. The more m
 embers who vote the more representative of the broader membership the re
 sult will be. Any questions or concerns please email to the committee at
  committee@canberrabushwalkingclub.org, or Andrea Coomblas, Vice Preside
 nt, at president@canberrabushwalkingclub.org. We are looking forward to 
 seeing you in April.
