All - I have received a few questions regarding who attends the AGM
and who votes.

My summary:

One or more members of affiliated teams + board members can attend
with each affiliated team and each board member getting one vote with
chairman getting a vote only in case of tie. A team must be
registered for the 2006-2007 year (past year). Teams just accepted
into the club may or may not get a vote, to be determined by the
board at the beginning of the AGM.

Detailed backup below.

Attendnace:

Regarding attendance: Consitution 1:06:01 Toward the end of
each Seasonal Year, the Chairman of this club with the concurrence of
the Board of Directors, shall call for an Annual General Meeting of
the Membership...

Regarding who votes, per our constitution:

1:05:01 Membership in this club shall be by Affiliated Team.

1:06:03 Each affiliated team and each member of the Board of
Directors shall be entitled to one (1) vote. Voting shall be
restricted to those affiliated teams which have been registered
during the current season. Voting by proxy shall not be allowed and
only those members of record in good standing shall be entitled to
voting privileges. The Chairman of this club shall cast a vote only
in the case of a tie. However, with the approval of the Board,
proposed new teams may be represented and vote at the AGM.
