Constitution change and new Management team

Hi Everyone,

On Friday evening the 1st of March a new constitution for Sydney Atheists Incorporated was voted on.  The 2013 constitution is now effective. In line with the 2013 constitution office bearers and committee members were elected. They are:

President - Steve Marton
Vice President - Morgan Storey
Secretary - Thomas Kraemer
Treasurer - Murray Love
Public Relations Officer - Carolynn Valbuena
Public Officer - Peter Cartledge
Assistant Secretary / Treasurer - David Killingly

The new management committee is closely linked to and fully supports the Sydney Atheist Meetup group.

If there are any questions or queries they can be addressed to contact@sydneyatheists.org

There are several sub-committees that we are looking for organisers for and volunteers for each. We would ask that you join the incorporated via www.sydneyatheists.org

I have put a # in the front of subcommittees that have no convenor(organiser) as yet.

#Helping Non-believing Refugees; this group will be setting up an outreach service to offer support to refugees that are non-believers, working with them to assist in gaining a working visa, and offering assistance in getting references and finding their feet.
