NOTICE TO ALL SHAREHOLDERS

Goldbelt requires all shareholders who want to use Goldbelt lands for camping or other recreational purposes to first acquire a permit from the Corporate Office. Shareholders using the land without obtaining a permit can be asked to leave the premises. Without knowing who is using our property, it becomes difficult for the Corporation to monitor use and to take measures when users are not respectful of the property or other shareholders’ right to use it.  Our rules and regulations are clear that users must follow certain rules, or they will lose their right to use the property. 

On June 1st, at the 36th Annual Meeting, shareholders elected three directors to three year terms.  Kathy Polk replaced Edith McHenry and re-elected were Trudy Skan and Del Cesar. Following are the full election results as certified by the Inspector of Elections:

The Board of Directors postponed the reorganization of the Board until its meeting on June 27, 2010, when a new Director will be appointed to fill the unexpired term of former Director Derek Duncan.
