The Icelandic Association of Washington D.C. needs your participation at the 2023 Annual General Meeting

Posted on April 9, 2023April 9, 2023 by Dwight Martino

Sunday, April 23rd, 2023 from 3:00-4:30 PM

We encourage all members and prospective members to attend.

Getting back on our feet after COVID, we had a great Christmas Bazaar and Thorrablot. And now its time to plan for the future, and elect new people to the board.  In particular, we very much want to relaunch our annual 17th June Independence Day party, which was always one of our key events before COVID. 

After having been President for seven years, Gunnar is stepping down, and Fanney is leaving the Board after having served for five years.  Although both intend to stay active in the organization, we need new people with fresh ideas for our future events and activities. 

Other Opportunities

We are also looking for communications and technical people who are interested in promoting our work and helping sustain our infrastructure.  Dwight has also served five years on the board building our membership systems and online marketing infrastructure, and is ready to train the next board members on the use of our great new tools.  So there is a great learning opportunity there.

When and Where

It will be held online on Sunday, April 23rd, 2023 from 3:00-4:30 PM. 

The meeting will be by videoconference only.  Participation is open to all members. Please write to info@icelanddc.com to receive an invite link for the videoconference.

Only members can vote. We encourage you to check if your membership is active on our site icelanddc.com. If you are not sure of your membership status, or are having problems accessing your information on the website, please send an email to info@icelanddc.com. If you haven’t renewed your membership in our new system before, please see our handy instructions page to help you login for the first time and renew your membership.

We hope to see you there!
