Hey John,
The schedule for that hasn&#039;t been set as of yet. The more flak I get, the slower I work, and I can get real slow, especially on my nickle. As a matter of fact, I can drag my feet until the current administration expires, and let the committee die with no action taken. That is an option which is open to me.
 Folks think we will amend the bylaws at the meeting apparently. This is not the case. What will take place is the proposal will be submitted to the membership to be placed on the annual ballot as proposed. By provisions in the current bylaws, in must pass un-amended, which makes it undebatable, it is either yea or nea. If it passes, it will go to the whole membership on the annual ballot, and the proposed bylaws will appear in the election edition of the magazine for the entire membership to review. 
There will be some handouts at Madison, I don&#039;t know when at this point.
 The action taken in Madison is just a technicality, which allows the issue to be put on the ballot.
 The actual approval or denial can only be done on the ballot. As far as timeframe to issue a proposal, that will occur sometime after the proposal clears committee. The rough draft was finished in handwriting about 15 or 20 minutes before the meeting in Lancaster, and has yet to be typed out. If the proposal passes or doesn&#039;t clear the membership meeting, or, is or is not approved on the annual ballot, as far as I am concerned, my job is finished.
 There is still some work to be done. Practically every change effects something else in the bylaws, so it will take some housekeeping to finish it out.
 Since the committee members don&#039;t live close by, this must be done when we are at an event or activity together, and have the time and facilities to work on it.
I&#039;m going to turn this computer off, and hide the power cord, then check my air pressure in my car tires, again, and count all the clover leaves on the farm!!!
Have a nice day! Later, Andy
