HOW TO WRITE A NOTIFICATION OF MEETING
A notice of meeting is a written document that informs
members of a group that a meeting is going to take place.
It informs interested parties about the time, place and date
of an upcoming meeting.
Notification of a business meeting should be given well in
advance of the meeting.
Organizers must notify attendees in writing of dates and
times of meeting.
Prior notification is important and this is documented using
a formal notification of meeting.
The notification of meeting must specify:

- It should state the day, date, time and place of the meeting
- It should be prepared and sent out in advance
