POWA Screening and SGM, 22nd January 2023

Location: Joondalup Library, Upstairs Meeting Room

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue with our second screening of 2023!

There was a good turnout for our first week back, so thank you to all guests and members as we continued our exciting lineup of anime. We started 2023 with a heavy round of voting on four shows. All shows survived the vote so they will continue as is.

After our screening this Sunday, January 22nd 2023, POWA will hold a Special General Meeting in order to vote for or against a set of proposed amendments to the POWA Constitution. You must be an active POWA member to attend the meeting and vote in the motion, so be sure to check your membership is up to date before the end of the screening event. There are more details on our website here

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime The Movie: Scarlet Bond – Outing

Location: Event Cinemas Innaloo
Date: Saturday January 21
Time: 7:00PM – 9:00PM

POWA is going to the cinemas to see the first film of the popular Isekai anime series That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. This film has an original story, so prior viewing isn’t necessary.

You can watch the TV anime series all on Crunchyroll, with a season 3 scheduled to air in the near future. So it might be worth checking out what makes this series so beloved and popular.

The movie starts at 7PM, but as we cannot book ahead, we cannot guarantee seats in the cinema. Ensure that you arrive early enough to purchase your tickets at the counter so you don’t end up disappointed.

Movie Synopsis:
A long-running conspiracy is swirling over a mysterious power known as “Queen” in Raja, a small country west of Tempest. When a slime who evolved into a Demon Lord named Rimuru Tempest crosses paths with Hiiro, a survivor of the Ogre race, an incredible adventure packed with new characters begins.

We hope to see you there!

POWA SGM for Constitution Amendment 5.0 – January 22nd

After our screening this Sunday, January 22nd 2023, POWA will hold a Special General Meeting in order to vote for or against a set of proposed amendments to the POWA Constitution. You must be an active POWA member to attend the meeting and vote in the motion, so be sure to check your membership is up to date before the end of the screening event.

This will be the only motion of the meeting, and the changes will not be discussed in detail, so if you wish to vote, please go over the changes prior to the start of the SGM. These changes are focused on POWA attempting to become an incorporated entity as outlined in the official document INC: A guide for incorporated associations in Western Australia.

The majority of changes were gone over in detail in a previous post. Since we asked for feedback from members on these changes, one additional amendment has been made to the final draft of Constitution 5.0. This change is outlined below.

This section on page 3 of the Constitution:

  • 5. Special General Meetings
    • I. An extraordinary Special General Meeting outside of the quarterly meetings can be convened for any reason pertaining to club matters. The meeting may be called by either;
      i. The POWA Committee; or
      ii. 50% of POWA’s members.

Has been updated to:

  • 5. Special General Meetings
    • I. An extraordinary Special General Meeting outside of the quarterly meetings can be convened for any reason pertaining to club matters. The meeting may be called by either;
      i. The POWA Committee;
      ii. A single member of the POWA Committee; or
      iii. 50% of POWA’s members.

For reference:
Constitution Version 4.2, which is POWA’s current Constitution
Constitution Version 5.0, which contains all proposed amendments and what we will be voting on in the SGM.

As always, feel free to reach out to the Committee if you have questions via Facebook, Discord, or email us at powaclub@gmail.com.
