<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mark, Thanks again for your work on this. If this
meets the scrutiny of Bruce & Jeff I think we should submit it. If we need
to clean it up we can do that later. After all, we have been opperating up to
this point, evan with all the mistakes we seem to find. I have not re-read the
P&P but my feelings are the same, and it is less critical.</FONT></DIV>

bylaws:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2> </FONT> <BR><FONT
face=Arial size=2>Article III Membership</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Sentence: </FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Every
MRSSA affiliated club is encouraged to send a representative to the annual
meeting to maintain their affiliation. </FONT><BR><FONT
face="Times New Roman" size=3>Discussion: It was reported to me that
there was discussion at the Fall meeting to require a representative from
each team to be in attendance at the Fall meeting. Was there action on
this? Minutes? If so, should this sentence reflect that?
Using a more strict word such as required in place of encouraged?
Should this be moved to P & P?</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2> </FONT> <BR><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Article VI
Election and Voting Privileges</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Times New Roman"
size=3>NSSA Regional Directors are listed with Board voting
privileges</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Discussion:
NSSA Regional Directors are listed in Article VI, but not in Article V
Officers. In Art. V the Executive Board is listed as well as the club
representatives. Should the Directors be included in Art. V?
Since there is only one vote per team, should they not be included
with voting privileges? Should there be more than one vote per team
with Directors being able to vote independently? Other than club
representatives, are any positions required to be affiliated with teams in
the region?</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2> </FONT> <BR><FONT

<BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Article X Committees</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Discussion: Four committees are listed and assumed to be
standing. Committees are also addressed in P & P. Will these
committees be appointed and active? Should these be omitted from the
bylaws and left to the P & P?</FONT> <BR><FONT face="Times New Roman"
size=3> </FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I will address P & P in
another e-mail. Will P & P also need to be addressed before the
NSSA meeting? There may be a few things we may want to explore in
depth. Also of concern, according to current bylaws Article XIV -
</FONT><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>bylaws may be amended by a
two-thirds (2/3) majority at any MRSSA meeting.</FONT> <BR><FONT
face="Times New Roman" size=3>Loosely, a conference call could qualify as a
