Notice of Proposed Bylaw Change
The Board of Directors has approved the proposed Bylaw amendment below to permit changes to the frequency and location of our meetings, rather than the mandatory weekly meetings as required by the present Bylaws.
ARTICLE 6 Meetings
Section 2 Regular meetings of this club shall be on a day, time and place to be determined by a vote of at least two-thirds of the membership. There shall be at least two regular meetings per month. For good cause, the board may change a regular meeting to any day between the preceding and following regular meetings to a different time of the regular day, or to a different place.
This amendment requires at least ten days notice to the membership, so a vote on the amendment will take place at the regular Club meeting on September 17th, 2019.
Next Meeting September 3 Mississaugua Golf & Country Club 12:00 pm
