| Club M
first started in September 1987 under the name ’Association of Mauritians of Scarborough’ as a group of friends getting together for sports and social
activities on Friday evenings. The activities of the group was coordinated by a small
group of dedicated volunteers which consisted of |

Francois Loo-Yong-Kee |
Noel Siao |
AMS
was very successful in its first year and outgrew the expectations of those who
started it. The participants were friends of those who were already involved. Soon, it
became too big to be run solely by a group of volunteers without any directions and
structure. It became apparent that the group should re-evaluate its objectives and
organizational structure. Out of this reflection was born an Executive Committee for AMS
in September 1988 consisting of the following members:

On
27 November 1988,
the new Executive
Committee of AMS, formally chose a new name for AMS. After several meetings and going over
a dozen suggestions for a new name, it was finally decided and approved that the new name
of AMS will be ’Club M’. By November 1990, a new set of constitutions and
by-laws was drafted and Club M was officially incorporated in the Province of Ontario
under the name ’Regroupement Mauricien de Toronto, Ontario Inc.’. But it is more commonly
know as Club M.Club M has been carrying out recreational, social and other activities
within the Toronto and surrounding areas since then. Choose a year from the side bar. |
