  3. By-laws, Membership and Society 101 Update : The Member at Large has gone through and done a lot of work editing, restructuring, and making corrections to the last standing by-laws to bring them in line with the current state of the organization. The Board had a meeting 9/29 attended by 3 Board Members (Facilitator, Treasurer, Member at Large) to work on the by-laws, additional changes were made.  The rest of the board will review the completed proposed by-laws and the document will be made available for review by the membership.
