Because there is a difficulty in billing the clubs for annual dues in January, when many clubs are not meeting during the winter months, and the notices tend to get lost, it was decided by the Board and By-Laws Committee to move the billing date for dues to June when the member clubs are fully functioning. It will be necessary for the club reps to vote on this procedure change at the February general meeting. The January date has been found to be impractical and involves time-consuming rebilling of the clubs. Also, the elected officers and reps of the clubs that may have changed early in the year would by June presumably have been updated in the JCAA database.

Article 11 Section 1 currently reads:

ARTICLE #11 - DUES

Section 1 - Annual dues shall be established by the Executive Board and approved by two-thirds of the membership present at a meeting. Dues are payable in January of each year or upon presentation of a dues notice by the Membership Secretary.

ARTICLE #11 - DUES

Section 1 - Annual dues shall be established by the Executive Board and approved by two-thirds of the membership present at a meeting. Dues are payable in June of each year or upon presentation of a dues notice by the Membership Secretary.

This will be voted upon at the January 2006 general meeting.

We need to change the wording to read:
