As announced at our regular meeting on March 15, 2012, the Board of Directors proposes to amend the bylaws to include a New Generations Standing Committee reflective of the Club's strong focus on students and youth. 

The proposed amendment

1. updates Article 8 to reflect the 5th Avenue of Service (which was approved by RI in 2010) and 
2. updates Article 9 to include a New Generations Standing Committee which is charged with developing and implementing programs and opportunities for students and youth.

Article 16 of the bylaws specifies the method of amendment as follows:

"These bylaws may be amended at any regular meeting, a quorum being present, by a two-thirds vote of all members present, provided that notice of such proposed amendment shall have been provided to each member by E-mail or meeting announcement at least ten (10) days before such meeting. No amendment or addition to these bylaws can be made which is not in harmony with the standard Rotary club constitution and with the constitution and bylaws of RI."

A vote on the proposed change will take place at the regular meeting on April 5th.

Please direct any questions or concerns to President@WestChesterRotary.us prior to the April 5th meeting.
