Since you don't have the current P&P, below is the verbiage verbatim in the 
current P&P Manual in the secure section of the GSDCA website regarding Closed 
Sessions.

Closed sessions of the Board:   Matters dealing with personalities; special 
awards such as being placed on the Roll of Honor; President's Citation Award; 
Honored Guest at National; dedications; as well as disciplinary matters and 
other sensitive matters shall be discussed at a closed session of the Board.   
The President and/or members of the Board shall feel free to call for a closed 
session, or sessions, at any time of the Board meeting.

I hope this helps clear up your questions.

Regards,
Pat
