FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 16, 2013
A message from NAUI Members Dallas Edmiston, NAUI 4099, Rick Lorimor, NAUI 44715, and Michael Feld, NAUI 50134
Dear Member:
Where will you be January 25th?
Join us at NAUI HQ in Tampa, FL for the Annual General Membership (AGM) meeting of NAUI members!
In accordance with Article IV, Section 4 of the NAUI Bylaws, the Board of Directors is required to schedule and conduct an annual meeting with the membership. The meeting is open to both voting and non-voting members and any member may submit agenda items to the secretary or chairman anytime up to 15 days prior to the meeting. This year the meeting is scheduled at NAUI HQ in Tampa, Florida on January 25th at 10:00AM.
Part of our pledge during the campaign was to improve communications between the NAUI board and members. Your participation in the AGM is a great way to show your support of renewed engagement of the board with members. We believe that effective leadership, as a director requires at least in part, knowing what is of concern to our members.
We welcome the opportunity to meet as many of you as possible at the upcoming AGM and would like to extend an invitation to attend. This is an important meeting, because it is the one time each year when members directly meet with and are able to question directors. While participating by viewing the meeting online may be informative, the best way to assure communication between you and the directors is to attend this meeting. You have the right to request agenda topics as noted above and to know how your directors are working on your behalf.
Thank you, and we hope to see you in Tampa!
