SAINT Francis Credit Union Clare Community Games has warned that unless it can find volunteers for its executive committee, then the county will not have a community games.
The organisation, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year has put a call out for volunteers to fill posts on its committee.
The call comes on foot of the organisation’s AGM last week, which was held via Zoom. Seventeen of the registered areas were in attendance and the meeting proceeded well until the election of the executive committee.
Nine members of the outgoing committee did not seek re-election and nominations for these positions were not put forward.
The meeting was adjourned and will reconvene on Tuesday, November 30 at 8pm.
Areas are now encouraged to hold their Annual General Meeting and put names forward for the positions which are vacant.
The vacant positions include: Chairperson, Vice Chairperson, Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer, Games Director, Youth Officer. A Children’s Officer will also be appointed.
If these positions are not filled on November 30, then County Clare will not have Community Games for the first time in 50 years. Areas will be unable to affiliate to Community Games if County is not affiliated.
