Our AGM is coming up on Sunday the 21st of March at 11:00 am, in Carlton Gardens*. This is your chance to get involved with a community that you've grown to love, or just a way to see what goes on behind the scenes if you're new to YSA!!
We will also be electing our new committee for the next year - this is open to old members, new members, and even returning members. Roles range from the scary, scary President position (they call the shots within YSA and are a key part of setting up our goals and future ideas) , to a much more low-key general elected member (GEM) whose role it is to provide input and help out when they can (it's a great way to dip your toes into our committee and learn how all the different areas work!).
Anyone is allowed to run for a committee position as long as they have been a member for at least 7 days before the date of the AGM AND have a CURRENT membership on the day - however, if you're interested in an office position (President, VP - Science, VP - Socials, Communications, Secretary, Treasurer), you will also need to be over the age of 18 and have served on the committee for at least 9 months prior. To check your YSA membership please follow the link beloew!

*Due to the current uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic the AGM may be moved to an online forum at a later date to adhere with medical advice and government guidelines.
Following the AGM on the 21st we will be running a team trivia challenge full of science, general knowledge, and pop culture questions! We'd love it if you would hang around after the meeting to test your knowledge and have some fun!!
When is this happening?
This is happening alongside our AGM on Sunday, the 21stof March.
Here's our current schedule:
> 11am-11:45pm - Meeting at Melbourne Central, Swanson Street (opposite the State Library!)
> 11:45pm-12pm - YSA will escort all of their wonderful members to Carlton gardens and we'll find somewhere comfy and shaded to set up and relax in the grass!
> 12pm onwards - Our AGM, fun politics, new committee and delicious snacks
We're not sure exactly how long our AGM will run for, it usually takes about an hour, possibly more.
> 1pm(ish)-4pm - It's trivia time lads!!!
> 4pm onwards - YSA will escort everyone back to Melbourne Central Station.
Where is this happening?
We hope to be able to hold the AGM at Carlton Gardens however due to possible changes to COVID-19 restrictions we ask that you check the TIDY-HQ (follow the RSVP link) or Facebook events frequently for updated information in case we have to move to an online forum.
What do I bring?
Yourself, your friends, your democratic spirit, and your trivia brain!
Where do I sign up!
You WILL NEED to let us know if you're coming by Sunday March 14th (this is also when our committee position applications will close).
This is so we can be sure we will meet quorum requirements for our AGM as well as number limits inline with the Victorian government COVID restrictions.
If for any reason you can't make it to AGM in person but still wish to be involved by calling in please email exec@melbourne.ysa.org.au so that we can organise this.
