The Club held it's AGM on November 19th, 2009. The evening was hosted at the German Canadian Cultural Association and featured great conversation, excellent food, and somewhere in there we got around to discussing some Club business.

Dave Welsh gave the President's message with all of the highlights of 2009. The Club is doing excellent with strong membership, and sound financial footing. We have a new logo based on some changes in BMW's branding policies. The Driving School is still going strong despite uncertainty about the future of Race City Speedway in Calgary.

Doug Standnyk debreifed the club on the success of the social events in 2009. The Club continues to have a strong social mandate as evidenced by the well attended social events.

The club gave out its Special Recognition Award for 2009. Vince gave a glowing tribute about Rob Chan who has been involved in the BMW club for many years and continues to contribute as the events chair. Vince presented Rob with a certificate of appreciation as this year’s recipient of the Special Recognition award and $100.00 honorarium.
