Proposed Revised Bylaws
Members discussed some concerns with the proposal. Some concerns centered around Membership Types, particularly the definitions of Live Member, active or inactive. Also, clarification of Affiliate member was requested. Another concern was that the proposed revised Bylaws did not specifically mention the Honors Program which was separated into a stand alone document.
Due to these concerns, it was decided that further revisions and clarifications were needed and a vote on the revised Bylaws was postponed. Once changes are made the revised Bylaws will be presented to the club members for review by posting a link on the website.
