COUNTY CAUCUS MEETINGS

Board delegates are encouraged to hold regular membership meetings (members within the boundaries of a county) to keep membership up to date regarding issues of concern, to obtain input and to seek possible solutions to affect change. 

Members are encouraged to attend and participate providing input on issues.

County membership meetings are scheduled on the calendar and notices are sent out to members within county boundaries. At times, regional meetings are scheduled and notices are also sent.

Caucus meetings, with no elections, may be held from time to time on the call of the directors provided all members in said county are invited and given enough lead time to attend the caucus meeting.
