Members Meetings 

 

The VDBC has a regular member meeting which is held on the second Tuesday of every month.
The meeting is held at the common rooms located at the National Water Sport Centre, Riverend Rd Bangholme Vic @ 6:30pm
All members are invited and encouraged to attend to discuss, debate and shape the VDBC and to form direction for the club.
We do our best to notify members of meetings (including the occasional extra-ordinary meeting) via email, Facebook and our website.

 

We apply a bit of structure to our meetings, which includes asking all members not to talk over each other or interrupt during meetings.
We try to allow everyone the opportunity to have their say.
