If you can then try and schedule your visit to attend the AGM. You’ll get a copy of the accounts and the agenda in advance . You will get to know all the problems affecting your community, however big or small and it also gives you the chance to have some input as to what happens in your little community. It’s also handy to know if you have a willing president , as some communities have to annually pick names out of a hat. It you don’t attend it could come as a bit of a shock to find that even in your absence you’re the president for the following year.
So I would always advise attending all AGMs but especially your first one.
Some of the larger and newer communities have a zoom meeting set up for those who can’t attend in person
