After a speech by our President, Mike McClenahan, our Vice-President Marie Habert reminded us of all the events, then Our Treasurer Jean-Joseph Dombrowski presented his financial report. This report shows a deficite for the year 2023, due to an increase in the cost of our end of the year lunch, but everything is all right. Après un discours de notre Président, Mike McClenahan, notre Vice-Présidente, Marie Habert, fit un résumé de nos différentes activités intervenues en 2023. Ensuite, ce fut le tour de notre Trésorier Jean-Joseph Dombrowski, de présenter son rapport financier. Il y a un déficit cette année, car il y a eu une forte augmentation du coût du repas de fin d’année, mais malgré tout, les finances de l’Association restent saines.
It has been decided to increase the annual subscription and to pass it to 17€ per person. Il a été décidé d’augmenter la cotisation annuelle et de la passer à 17€ par personne.
