Prince George, BC – Following our 75th Anniversary Annual General Meeting, we are pleased to welcome our new directors: Tim Bennett, Alexandra Goseltine, John-Paul Wenger. We are also welcoming back Wendy Fellers and Jillian Merrick.
In January, the Board of Directors Nominating Committee issued a call for candidates to fill five seats. During the application period, five applications were received from members in good standing and incumbents. The five nominees were acclaimed to the Board of Directors at our AGM and will join the remaining elected directors that make up our ten-member board. Welcome and congratulations to our new and returning directors – we look forward to the insights and perspectives you bring throughout your terms.
In addition to the Nominating Committee business, we were also pleased to share the results of our Special Resolution Vote at our virtual AGM. The vote called for general housekeeping and clarity around language changes to the Integris Credit Union Rules. The special resolution was endorsed by the membership and passed.
Following the Annual General Meeting, the Integris Board of Directors met and we are pleased to share the following board members will sit as the Board’s Executive:
Board Chair: Jim Rivett
Vice-Chair: Cheryl Wallace
Recording Secretary: Wendy Fellers
Member at Large: Alexandra Goseltine
“On behalf of the board, thank you to all who attended our 75th Annual General Meeting.

We are pleased to welcome new and returning directors who represent you, our members, and we look forward to diving in at our first board meeting as a new board” says Jim Rivett, Board Chair.
Finally, on behalf the board and Integris staff, we would like to thank Henk Hanemaayer (7 years of service), Ross Hyam (3 years of service), and Bruce Steele (24 years of service) for their service to the Integris Board of Directors as they retire from their positions.
