[NFBMV] Elections

[Carolyn Peters]

Sent from my iPhone I would recommend that in our November meeting we make an amendment just to show that we have hail our meetings for elections in December although the constitution says October it would be great to clarify with an amendment only. Thanks for the research

Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back

As long as I have been in the chapter, however, we have held them at different times, the one coming to mind being held during our Christmas party in December, 2016.  So personally I am not opposed to us holding them in December.  I think we need to plan ahead for this a little better in future years, though, just to remain compliant.  This is fine, anyway, because the terms of the newly elected officers start on January 1.  Technically, we would be in further violation of the constitution if we had moved the elections to January.
