HOOOOOOOOWL!


Dear SEA-PAH Community,

We are also going to be waiting to see what our venues do and when they will be ready for us to come back. Venues can choose to still be restrictive by requiring everyone to be vaccinated, still requiring table service or social distancing, and limiting capacity just to name a few things. Right now we are waiting on our venues to see what the next steps are once they give us the green light we can talk about Social and Moshes again.

In the meantime, members are still more then welcome to host their own events like Hikes, Socials and game nights if they like. If you would like us to post in the Howl, Instahowl and pin in the barkroom chat you can email us at Board@seaph.org

Policies and Procedures Committee

There were a great many advisory votes made during the AGM in January and with the results in mind, the Board will be working on updating the policies and procedures of SEA-PAH. This will include proposing updates to the bylaws, codifying the standing rules, and other tasks related to the day to day operations of the organization. Why should you care, you're asking?  Because:

WE WANT YOU!  That's right!  We want members of the organization to come together with us and advise, help draft, and fine tune the language that will be submitted to the community for updates to our systems.  If you're interested in joining this committee, we ask that you email: bylaws@seapah.com and we will be in touch to schedule.  The first meeting of the Policies and Procedures Committee will take place in March, keep your ears perked in next month's HOWL for dates!  

Barkroom Committee
