Please join us for the Annual General Meeting of Section 79 of the Illuminating Engineering Society - Edmonton Section (Northern Gateway). The AGM will be relatively short, with an update on the past year's activities, some future plans and elections of the board of directors.
Northern Lighting Awards
In addition to the AGM, we will have a presentation on the State of Lighting in Northern Alberta & beyond, featuring some of our award-winning lighting projects, some interesting lighting installations, and other lighting features designed by local teams.
Again this year we will be recognising our local section's lighting contributions with our Northern Lighting Awards. One winner will be presented in each of the two categories; Interior and Exterior. We will hold a special prize draw for all those who submit projects (one entry for each individual submission), and all voters will be also be eligible for a prize draw (e.g., gift card). No project is too small or too big - all submissions are welcome.
If you have a project that you would like to showcase at our AGM please send us the following information:
Project title
Project location
A short description of the project
Up to 5 photos that we can use for the presentation
The projects may be geographically located anywhere in the world, however, design credit must belong to those in our local section.
We request that your submissions are provided to us no later than May 8th so that we have time to incorporate the information into our AGM presentation. Full details of the submission requirements is available on our Northern Lights Awards webpage.
Come find out what's illuminating our province, enjoy lunch on us, and do some networking!
AGM Board Elections:
Election of the board for the upcoming year will be provided at the event with voting for the positions at the meeting. If you wish to become a member of the board, or would like to nominate someone for the position please let us know.
All nominations known before the meeting can be sent to the IES Edmonton email account with the name and proposed board position at info@iesedmonton.org. We would like to include names of nominees with the presentation for all to see, but this is not required, as any members in attendance may also be nominated for a position on the board.
Descriptions and responsibilities for the board positions can be reviewed under the IES Section Guide (PDF). We encourage all members who wish to become more involved with the local section to become general members (Managers) or Officers of the board. We are always looking for new ideas and directions that will benefit our membership.
