Questions:
*What are the requirements for an At-Large Member?
They bring in fiscal funds, attend at least 5 meetings/events throughout the year, and support the band. They have a 2-year term and they can be voted to continue in that position. Current At-Large Members are…Jason Applegate, Greg McGill, Craig Baenziger, and Deena Aguiar. At least two At-Large Members need to be parents. The Directors and Executive Committee reach out to At-Large Members and inform them as to what is needed to support the organization and students. Commitment is sometimes greater during a trip year.
*The next step is updating the By laws. They will then be posted on the website.
*The changes take effect immediately.
