Proposed JCAA Bylaw Change

by Paul Haertel
(from Jersey Coast Anglers Association April 2024 Newsletter)

At our January meeting, I proposed the following bylaw change. The area in red shows the suggested change. We will vote on it at our general membership meeting on March 26th. Once the bylaw change is approved, we will hold our election of officers. There will be no need to vote for President unless someone other than Mark Taylor volunteers.
