Community Meetings

General band meetings, information sessions, engagement meetings and annual general meetings.

One Arrow holds several different kinds of meeting, and it helps to know which is which. Some are for information only, some gather feedback, and some involve a vote that shapes a decision.

Meeting schedules are announced through the website, community social media and newsletters. You can also call the band office on 306-423-5900 to ask what is coming up.

  • Input gathered ahead of decisions

Annual General Meetings

Staying informed

  1. Check the events calendar for scheduled meetings and community gatherings.
  2. Watch community social media and newsletters, where meeting notices are posted.
  3. Call the band office on 306-423-5900 if you are unsure whether a meeting is going ahead.
  4. Ask which type of meeting it is. Whether a vote is involved changes how important it is to attend in person.
