The Bylaws Committee has worked hard over the last few months to revise the Federation Bylaws. The Federation Board voted to approve the bylaws revisions, standing rules revisions and articles of incorporation on December 11, 2023. Per the current bylaws, once the board has approved these changes we must send to the Federation membership, namely you, 30 days prior to a called membership vote. That vote will take place at the business meeting to be held on Saturday, January 20, 2024 at the MSC. Please see below for important information to be prepared in the upcoming weeks.

Amendments received after midnight CST January 12, 2024 will not be considered.
- Voting on the amendments to the articles of incorporation and the adoption of the bylaws revision and the standing rules revision will take place at the January 20, 2024 business meeting and debate on their adoption will be in order.
