Constitution and Bylaws for the current organizational structure
approved by the CAHPERD Membership |
| June, 2003- May, 2005 |
Kathy Scott was appointed Parliamentarian
and discovered that the Constitution and Bylaws were not
functioning in an effective and satisfactory manner. For
at least the first five years of the new structure it was
necessary to “suspend
the Bylaws” (due to lack of a quorum) in order to conduct
business. |
| Spring 2004 |
Task Force appointed to evaluate the Constitution and Bylaws
with regard to timelines and functionality. Chair: Kathy Scott |
| May/June 2004 |
Request to the general membership through an article in
the CAHPERD Journal asking for information and ideas to help
direct the actions of the Task Force. Four general questions
were asked and members were asked to respond:
- What are the strengths of the current structure and
how could they possibly be enhanced or improved?
- What, in the current structure, is not working as well
as it could and how would you suggest modifying it or
improving it?
- What components of the current structure are not working
and why? Should they be eliminated and if so, what would
you propose as an alternative?
- Is there a different structure that might better serve
the Association and if so, what are the details?
Number of responses: Zero; Task force
