VIU Chess club

This seemed interestingly applicable to unincorporated associations (most student organizations), and how constitutions and club bylaws add value.

Governance Considerations For Unincorporated Associations That Will Pay Off In The Long Run - Directors and Officers - Canada Charities and non-profits are often faced with the question of whether to incorporate. Our simple answer is this: prevention is the best medicine.

If anyone is interesting in starting up the club this year, I can pass over the reigns to this page.

Additionally, I believe some of our equipment (sets & clocks) are in the custody of MGM restaurant chess club, will have to contact the former lead to confirm.

Thanks,

Former Club Director 2014-2016 (now in Ontario)

Hi All,
To anyone open to running the VIU chess club 2021+, send me a pm and I can grant management access to this page.

Last I remember, club assets were due to be held available-for-use by MGM restaurant chess club & some digital media vis-a-vis Jamie Campbell.

Regards,
Thomas Seal, Former Pres. 2014-15

I didn't post the join form publicly because I was worried that it would get swarmed by spam bots but a friend has told me to have faith in Google's captcha system so.. here goes.. you can join the club using https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Km5sNSDsVavajWUNdsMTVxhgzG6cGKE-67JfuljTXxk

I did the club submission at https://forms.monday.com/forms/01d93cbcb6bff6f2796a34a24dca736b (which is the "start a new club" link at http://viusu.ca/clubs-course-unions/ ) and heard back about it. There's a checklist of six items that I'll spend this weekend working through. Please post a reply to this if you'd like to be a club member, and I can send you the membership form

Request to Start a Club or Course Union

On the hunt for two executives. As a note, anyone in the community (not just students at VIU) can be members of a VIU club but only students can be executives. Once we have three executives we can get rolling :)

Hi members,

I’m in the midst of recovering the Gmail account, I have the password, but will need to dig up my laptop (as I think it’s the only accepted device).

Pardon the lack of responses on the account, once it’s running again, I’ll pass it along to the future president.

Thanks,
Thomas Seal (Former President)

If someone would like to manage this club page to run the VIU Chess club again, let me know.

It has sadly come to my attention, that president Nick Peters has passed away earlier this week.
