PROPOSALS FOR ANNUAL MEETINGS IN MARCH 2008
The
following proposals will be discussed and voted on at the annual Field
Governor meeting to be held March 30, 2008 at Seven Feathers in Canyonville,
OR. According to the Oregon Bow Hunter organization By-Laws, every OBH
chartered club should have a Field Governor as an officer, and that person
should attend the annual meeting to discuss and vote on the proposals. The
President can attend in the Field Governor’s place. Each OBH chartered
club has one vote and that vote can be sent with the person attending the
meeting. Each OBH member has one vote, so if only one person is attending
from any one OBH chartered club, and representing that club, that person
would have two (2) votes.
There were
no Game Committee proposals submitted.
An emergency
proposal can be submitted at the annual meeting by Title only. The
membership present at the meeting votes whether or not to hear the entire
proposal from the Title given. If the proposal is heard in it’s entirety
and a motion is made, then the proposal can be discussed and voted upon by
the membership present at the annual meeting. This works the same for both
the Field Governor's meeting and the Game Committee meeting. There may or
may not be emergency proposals to submit at either of the meetings in March.
PLEASE attend both of these meetings, and the General Membership meeting to
show your support for OBH.
