September 15th: Invitation to decide actions to mark NBTA 10th anniversary

Next year, in Spring 2019, the NBTA will be 10 years old. That’s 10 years of fighting the attempts of navigation and local authorities to get rid of live-aboards; 10 years of standing up for the the rights of itinerant boat dwellers and 10 years of looking out for and supporting Bargee Travellers.

So rather than hold an Annual General Meeting in November 2018 the NBTA is proposing to have celebrations and actions in the Spring of 2019. To plan these events members are invited to an Extraordinary General Meeting on Saturday 15th September 2018 from 3pm to 7pm at the Friends Meeting House, 150 Church Road, Watford, WD17 4QB (and a trip to the pub afterwards).

All Members are invited to come and contribute to deciding how we celebrate 10 years of fighting back. Children are welcome.

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING

The National Bargee Travellers Association will hold an Extraordinary General Meeting at 3pm on 15th September 2018 at the Friends Meeting House, 150 Church Road, Watford, WD17 4QB to discuss, consider and amend as appropriate the following motion (proposal):

“That in April 2019 the National Bargee Travellers Association will celebrate 10 years of supporting itinerant boat dwellers, with a day of action and collective partying”.

A short time will also be set aside to discuss any other urgent business.

We look forward to seeing you all on the 15th September 2018.
