Dear Fellow Congregant:
The annual meeting of the McHenry County Jewish Congregation will be held Sunday, May 19, 2019, at 10:30 am. The meeting will include:
- State of the Congregation
- Board of Directors Election, 2019-20
- Rabbi’s Comments, School & Committee Reports
- Open discussion of congregational matters
The annual meeting coincides with year-end school activities, which will begin at 9:15 am. All members are encouraged to attend the annual meeting starting at 10:30 am, as your input is vital to our success. We hope you also plan to attend our annual school closing picnic, which will start at about 11:15 am.
Each family membership is entitled to two votes (member must be 18 or older). Single members are entitled to one vote.
A quorum (25% of eligible voters) is required to conduct congregational business so it is important you either attend or provide a proxy. If you cannot attend, you are allowed to designate a vote by proxy. You may print out and sign the proxy below and send it along with a member who is attending the May 19 meeting, or you may cut, paste and complete the proxy and email it to Dale Morton at Rdalemorton@gmail.com or Karen Koenig at president@mcjconline.org.
Your vote is necessary to advance the business of this congregation this coming year by voting for or against the slate presented to the congregation by the Nominating Committee.
MCJC’s Nominating Committee is pleased to announce the following slate of officers for consideration for the 2019-20 fiscal year.
