The RCCO Vancouver Centre AGM took place at St. John’s Shaughnessy Anglican Church on June 22, with 13 people in attendance. Members present thanked Michael Molnar for five years of service as Centre President, and welcomed Angelique Po as our new President, as well as Ginger Shaw as our new Secretary (replacing Angelique Po). Michael Dirk continued as Vice-President and Education Officer, Tamar Genossar as Treasurer, Susan Ohannesian as Membership Coordinator, and Rachel Alflatt, Sam Balden, and Marianne Huestis as members at large.
Plans and ideas for the upcoming year include the annual Halloween Concert (with a change of venue due to the temporary closure of St. Andrew’s Wesley), the RCCO travelling Clinician workshop and recital (more info about these on this website’s “Upcoming Events” page), an organ crawl, a Members and Students recital, and more!

Afterwards the members put together and played the Orgelkit, under the able guidance of Michael Dirk, who has quickly become an expert in the assembly and use of this wonderful teaching tool.
