Twelfth Annual Meeting of the Membership
Adventures in Learning (AIL) celebrated an outstanding year at its twelfth annual meeting on May 19th held in the Ware Campus Center at Colby-Sawyer College. The afternoon began with a photo retrospective by Maureen Rosen. It can be viewed by clicking below on the “arrow” on this screen. For those who watched it at the meeting, we trust you will enjoy seeing it again, and for those who are viewing it for the first time, we hope you will enjoy finding yourself and your friends in the many photos taken by Maureen throughout the year at AIL classes and at AIL-sponsored events.
Outgoing AIL President Arthur Rosen called the brief and well-organized business meeting to order touching on AIL's accomplishments and highlights in 2010-2011. In addition he presented Colby-Sawyer College President Thomas Galligan with a check for $15,000, which will be added to the Colby-Sawyer Fund.
Incoming AIL President Morris Edwards took the microphone to give a sneak preview of the summer courses and the return of Opera North Young Artists benefit performance on July 23rd to be held at the college. Proceeds from the event will be divided between Opera North and the AIL Achievement Award Fund.
The 2011-2012 AIL Board of Directors was announced and unanimously approved by those in attendance. The Annual Report was handed out to attendees. If you would like to review the report, please click here.
Immediately following the business portion of the meeting, attendees were treated to a piano duet featuring Charlotte Signor and Heywood Alexander playing Preludes by George Gershwin, as well as a performance by the Sunapee Singers, directed by Charlotte. Attendees and performers enjoyed a lovely wine and hors d'oeuvres reception following the performances.
