BMW East Anglian Section Committee Members

Your committee are here to make sure there is plenty to do every year and like all good committees this takes a few different roles to achieve.

Each year the section holds an AGM which is your main opportunity to come along and either join the committee or at least get to meet and hear them all in one place at one time - you also (of course) get to vote on who you would like to fill the various roles.

Here is a list of the roles. There is no rule to say that one person can only hold one role and we have found that some of the roles actually fit together well, for example the National Committee Rep and the Secretary are roles often performed by the same person. Similarly we have also found that some roles can be shared reducing the burden on any one person (so for example the Social Secretary role has been shared between two people in the past very successfully)

Essential members:

Secretary / Chair
This person organises and chairs any committee meetings and generally makes sure that when someone says they are going to do something they don't forget to then do it.
Social Secretary
Coordinates the social calendar for the year. They do not run every event but they are always aware of what events are running and who is organising them and help those people promote the event with the help of the web master.
Treasurer
Fairly obvious, they keep the books on how much we spend and are in charge of the all important section cheque book - always keep on the right side of this person! They are also responsible for submitting the quarterly returns (so we get capitation money to run the section with) and annual reports.
General Committee Members
The committee also has at least 2 general members who are there to help out throughout the year especially on some of the bigger events where we need good reliable assistance organising, setting up or clearing away.

Other essential roles that are usually done by one of the above:

Membership Secretary
Processes all the membership requests for people in our area and makes sure those members are registered on the national database. They also help the Treasurer with the quarterly returns as they know how many people have joined and renewed.
National Committee Rep
Attends the 2 or 3 National Committee meetings per year to represent our section's interests in the national club. They are also responsible for feeding back news from the National Committee to the section committee for discussion
Web Master
Keeps the web site up to date and tries to make sure it is always fresh (I hope I am succeeding in that :). This is not usually a voted on post as there are so few volunteers.
