Club Meetings
Come join us at an Ottawa Valley Mobile Radio Club, Incorporated (OVMRC) meeting!
General meetings of the OVMRC are usually held on the 3rd Thursday of each month (with some exceptions), and for July and August (no meetings), at Canada Science and Technology Museum.
A typical General Meeting runs as follows:
-
7:30 pm Meeting begins with President’s welcome & introductions.
-
7:45 pm Featured presentation(s) or discussion topic.
-
8:45 pm Announcements.
-
8:55 pm Door prizes and 50-50 draws.
-
9:00 pm Refreshments, coffee, social hour at a local establishment. (aka The meeting after the meeting..[g])
We generally try to keep time devoted to club business to a minimum, in order to create more time for presentations and social interaction between our members.
Administrative matters are discussed at the Executive Meetings held on the second Thursday of each month at the museum and at the Annual General Meeting held in June of each year.
