At the General Meeting we will include some food and beverages for a meet and greet.Following the get together, we will have we will have member voting for Hackerspace positions of President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. Afterwards we will have the "State of the Space" Address, ending with General Member Feedback.

The "State of the Spate" Address is an occasional message presented by the President CT Hackerspace at a general annual meeting to the members of the space. The event includes a budget message, and an economic report of the space, and also allows the President to outline the hackerspace board agenda moving forward. It is an opportunity to get more involved in the space and meet members you may not normally have an opportunity to collaborate with others involved.

PS:

There was some questions about voting - Below is the Paragraphs from our bylaws: Remember you can vote by paper with your signature if you cannot make the date. 

6.13. Voting
a. Eligibility to Vote
Subject to the Connecticut Non-Stock Corporation Law, all members in good standing on the record date as determined under Section 6.15 of
these bylaws shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of members. Each member entitled to vote may cast one vote on each matter submitted to a
vote of the members. Members may not cumulate votes for the election of directors.
b. Manner of Voting
Voting may be by voice or by ballot, except that any election of directors
must be by ballot if demanded before the voting begins by any member at the
meeting.
c. Number of Votes
Each member entitled to vote may cast one vote on each matter submitted
to a vote of the members.
d. Approval by Majority Vote
If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting
power represented at the meeting, entitled to vote and voting on any matler, shall be deemed the act of the members unless otherwise required by
the Connecticut Non- Stock Corporation Law or by the articles of incorporation.
e. Waiver of Notice or Consent
The transactions of any meeting of members, however called or noticed
Bylaws (Final 100907) and wherever held, shall be as valid as though taken at a meeting duly held after standard call and notice, if (a) a quorum is present either inperson or by proxy, and (b) either before or after the meeting, each member entitled to vote, not present in person or by proxy, signs a written
waiver of notice, a consent to the holding of the meeting, or an approval of the minutes of the meeting . The waiver of notice, consent, or
approval need not specify either the business to be transacted or the purpose of the meeting except that, if action is taken or
proposed to be taken for approval of any matter specified in Section 6.11 .b. of
these bylaws, the waiver of notice, consent, or approval shall state the general
nature of the proposal. All such waivers, consents, or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the
meeting. A member's attendance at a meeting shall also constitute a waiver of notice of and presence at that meeting unless the member objects
at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or convened. Also, attendance at a
meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters required to be included in the notice of the meeting but not so
included, if that objection is expressly made at the meeting.
