POWA AGM and Election, 24th October

Location: Joondalup Library, Upstairs Meeting Room

This year has finally come to an end for the 2020/2021 committee.

And, as such, POWA hosts this year’s Annual General Meeting – during which the committee will once more go over what happened not just in the last quarter, but the last 12 months of POWA.

After looking back on the year in this AGM, POWA’s 2020/2021 committee will say goodbye to their positions on the committee and hold POWA’s annual committee election – where the community will vote on a new set of representatives to operate POWA.

Both the AGM and the POWA Election will be held at Joondalup Library, in the upstairs meeting rooms, and the meeting will run in our standard timeslot – 1:00pm to 5:00pm, Sunday.

This event is a member-only event, and you must have an active POWA membership to attend. If your POWA Membership has lapsed or you wish to purchase it for the first time, please do so at any of our regular screenings in the runup to the AGM or, if you are unable to make it down to any before the AGM, inform the committee directly and we will have a prepared membership for purchase upon your entry to the room.

This event will be FREE to attend – no raffle prize will be offered, but food, drinks and memberships will be on sale for attendees.

If you want a topic at the AGM discussed but wont be able to make it to the meeting itself, contact a committee member, the facebook group or our gmail and let us know – we will discuss the your topic during the meeting.

POWA changed its constitution and election guidelines in late 2020, and these changes affect how this AGM and Election will run. If you need a refresher on the constitution or the guidelines, both can be found here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YZ7eusIFkuIJkRPdtse9WhGigyzfRssd

If you want to nominate yourself for a spot on the committee, email us directly at POWAClub@gmail.com with your name and your expression of interest. If you are unable it to make the meeting but want to nominate yourself, you may do so in absentia. There will be additional steps to fulfil, but you will be able to run.

You may not vote on the committee in absentia – only members who attend this meeting may vote during the committee election.

If you have any questions, please contact us at our Facebook, Discord, Gmail or any of our meetings.

We hope to see you there!

POWA Screening, 17th October 2021

Location: Joondalup Library, Upstairs Meeting Room

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue!

Last week, we voted to keep watching ‘Golden Kamuy’ after a set of fantastic dramatic episodes. This week, will the drama of our Romance show ‘Fruits Basket’ hold up as well with the votes of POWA members?
We also bid an emotional farewell to our 47-episode journey with ‘Assassination Classroom’. Koro-Sensei and the class of 3-E shall be missed. To replace it, POWA is looking for a show within the Sports & Games. The nomination thread is open right now our Facebook group and suggestions are also always welcome on our website.

The week after this, the club’s Committee Year is coming to an end! Thus we’ll be looking for new committee nominations!

The election for our new Committee will take place on that Sunday, October 24th at our AGM held in the Library.

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue!

Last week, we voted to keep exploring the insane world of our Sci-Fi show, ‘Planet With’. This week, it’s time for our members to decide if it’s worth sticking with the slightly less insane ‘Golden Kamuy’. After an emotional penultimate episode of ‘Assassination Classroom’, it’s also important to note that we’ll be looking for a Sports series to replace its Action slot after the finale.
