26th ANA Convention - Organizing Committee Selection
Thursday, 04 October 2007
We want to thank everyone who participated in the BANA General Meeting held on Sunday afternoon in Towson to discuss 26th ANA Convention. About fifty members of the community participated in the event. Simon Dhungana of ANA held a town hall style forum where he briefly explained the mechanisms of organizing a Convention of more than 5 thousand Nepalese from ANA’s experiences. We want to thank Simon Dhungana and Medhani Adhikari of ANA for their time and efforts.
The town hall style forum was open to question and answer session where some of the members voiced their dissent on the nomination of Committee Chairs. We want to thank those of you who voiced their opinions in disagreement. This is a very encouraging practice in a democratic organization like BANA and we have considered those opinions in formulating the plans for going forward.
We will implement the following process in creating Committees/Sub-committees and their Chairpersons for the 26th ANA Convention organizing committee. Please note that these processes as well as organizing the Convention are dependent on all of our collective efforts. Please make sure that if you sign up your name for any of the committee, we expect a total commitment of your time and efforts.
1) Organizing Committee/Sub-committee Member sign upWe have listed the names of the people who have already signed up for the committees below. We will accept names for the committees until Sunday October 7th 1 PM. You can send us your intentions to become a member of the committee of your choice by email or call any one of the executive committee members. Please include your name, phone number and the committee you are interested in your email.
2) Final Organizing Committee/Sub-committee members list will be published after our discussions of Executive Committee on Sunday October 7.
3) We will set up a time and location to meet with everyone who signed up for the organizing committees on Sunday November 4th. At the meeting, members of each organizing committee will meet with BANA’s Executive committee for a brief joint session.
