Hello sailors!
GREAT NEWS - by a unanimous vote, we have agreed to ratify the Boston
Blind Sailing Bylaws!! 17 people voted. Thank you everyone who contributed
to writing, gave feedback, and voted to ratify! Your participation has been
key in creating a solid foundation for our blind sailing program.
Last week, we asked people to submit their interest for being on the Board
of Directors. The nominating committee met to discuss the applicants and
compiled their responses in a document, attached here. The nominating
committee will be putting forth 8 of 9 applicants (the ninth was someone
who wishes to defer to next year) at our First Annual Meeting of the
Corporation. It will also be permitted to make nominations from the floor.
So, what's next?
*1. Read through the nominees' responses, attached here. *
*2. Think about which nominees would comprise a board of varied and useful
experience.* Please note that according to the Bylaws, the Board shall be
comprised of 7 members, at least 2 of whom are visually impaired, and at
least 2 of whom are sighted. Additionally, the Bylaws state that the Board,
once elected, will decide who among them will hold certain offices. This is
*not* decided at the meeting.
*3. Come to the First Annual Meeting of the Corporation on Thursday, April
25th at CBI *(waiting on time confirmation).
*4. Elect the first Board of Directors!*
Congratulations - we have bylaws! We are one step closer to becoming a
non-profit!
All the best,
Grace
