Just a friendly reminder to all from Larry’s e-mail below:  we will be having our first Board meeting of the season this Thursday, February 20^th starting 0900 in upstairs in the EGC Clubhouse. 

 

This meeting is open to all members and you are free to comment and ask questions.  However, only Board members, or their representative, can vote on formal motions (if any).

 

One item on the agenda is a potential EMGA Code of Conduct.  Rule 1.2 encourages Committees to have one if they are going to use it to apply penalties for inappropriate conduct.  The only penalties we apply now are for Pace of Play, which is a current EMGA policy.  The attached draft Code of Conduct incorporates that policy along with other conduct we expect of EMGA members.  There are no penalties associated with these other expectations though.  The question for the Board meetings is do we need such a document or just keep Pace of Play as its own policy?

 

Also attached is a draft copy of our 2025 Constitution to be voted on by the Members at our Springs meeting.  Other than a few grammatical corrections, there are two changes from last season:

1. Removes the requirement for a nominating committee for officer positions.  The VP will just solicit nominees as he does now.
2. Specifies the Distinguished Service Award can only be won once but the Significant Contribution can be won multiple times
