Oliver to post notice of AGM and call for nominations for executive members.

No report yet – we need to set Linda up with the tools to do this.
Linda Boyd is trying to contact Incorporated Societies about updating our official documentation. Running into issues with access to their site – need a specific login. Oliver will follow this up by contacting David Greig.
Event in Provinces:
Karl Snell supports running a competition in Hamilton – he’d also like an opportunity to give some extra training to fencers from Tauranga. We need to think about when to run this event and if we should use the opportunity to run a training camp.
Clubs Running Events:
Ongley Open – Auckland Swords
Regional U15s – Auckland High Performance
Regional U17s – North Harbour Fencing Club
Regional U20s – University of Auckland Fencing Club
Fencing North agrees that these clubs can run these competitions. We had originally decided that we would let clubs run up to 5 events total – only four clubs came back to us so Fencing North will run the 1 event left over.
