URGENT CCC MEMBERSHIP WOR MEETING – MAY 20, 8:00 PM EST

URGENT CCC MEMBERSHIP WOR MEETING MAY 20, 8:00 PM EST

The CCC Board of Directors is ready to decide on whether the CCC will host the 2020 Week of Rivers. The Board has been keenly focused the full picture of the pandemic. Not just the COVID-19 data but also guidelines from various organizations (State, CDC, ACA, Bryson City, Swain county), the potential impact on local healthcare where we paddle, social distancing challenges (campground bathhouse, morning meetings, shuttles), and other potential risks and liabilities to the club. Our ultimate responsibility is the health and safety of our club members.

In the spirit of the CCC Bylaws on club decision making, the Board invites you to an urgent CCC Membership meeting on Wednesday, May 20, from 8:00-9:00 pm EST. In this meeting we will have a brief overview from the board, Q&A, and a live online vote. This is an opportunity for your voice to be heard so please make every effort to attend.

We want to make the decision in time for all members to adjust their plans for the week the event occurs. Please note if the State of NC does not move to a re-opening phase which allows large group gatherings, this is all a moot point. But again, the CCC is governed by our bylaws and our bylaws require a membership vote when time permits.

Meeting details are on the CCC Website:
