There was a fairly good turnout for Bragdið’s annual general meeting this evening, where 26 members made up the club’s AGM in the hall at the ÍSF building.

Ann Thomsen gave the club’s first-ever annual report by a woman chair, and was able to point out that Bragdið is a very active and well-run club. Sunniva Bjarnastein, who stepped down from the board, was also able to show that Bragdið is run sensibly in financial terms too.

In addition to Sunniva, Anna Maria Seloy also stepped down from the board, so two new board members and one substitute member had to be elected. First, a new vice-chair was elected to replace Anna Maria. Rúni Seloy, who already sat on the board, was elected by acclamation. Three people stood in the board election. Sunneva Herup Olsen and Niels Poulsen were elected directly to the board, while Steingrímur Hallsson becomes substitute member.

Bragdið plans to make some changes to its statutes, so an extraordinary general meeting will be held in two weeks. There were also several good discussions on various matters at the meeting, and by the sound of it there is plenty for the new board to get stuck into.

The new board: Herluf Jakobsen, Steingrímur Hallsson, Niels Poulsen, Rúni Seloy, Sunneva H. Olsen and chair Ann Thomsen. We wish them every success.
