Fellow Archers,
The next monthly meeting of Mid-Del Archers is scheduled to start at 7:00 PM on September 25, 2005. The meeting place will be the Fox Hunters Clubhouse. The clubhouse will open @ 6:30. See you there.
The tractor has been sold. A list is being prepared of targets needed and the priority they should be purchased. The list will be presented to the membership for review. Targets will then be purchased. We anticipate having some new targets before years end. Do you have a particular target preference? Come to the meeting and make your preference known.
Replaced targets will be available during the monthly 30-D shoot with prices based on the particular target condition. If you are interested in obtaining a target for your back yard range, come out during the monthly 3-D shoot and check out the available targets after we purchase the replacement targets.
Mid-Del Archers internet website has been seeing some changes thanks to the efforts of Danny Tartt. The address is: www.mid-delarchers.com. Check out the changes.
Annual nomination of club officers is rapidly approaching and I would like to continue to serve Mid-Del Archers in my present capacity as Secretary/Treasurer. However, the club constitution presently excludes the Secretary/Treasurer from serving more then one year. Therefore, based on the membership recommendation, the Constitution for Mid-Del Archers is to be revised to allow the Secretary/Treasurer to serve more then a single year and correct the Constitution to reflect current conditions.
The proposed changes to the Mid-Del Archers Constitution is as follows:
Article III Board of Directors, Section B, Subsection d.
From:
d. The Secretary/treasurer will hold office for one (1) year.
The incumbent Secretary/treasurer will work with the new Secretary/treasurer in transition for a period of one (1) month.

b. Auditors shall be outgoing Board members and the elected officers, plus one member from the general membership.
To:
d. Transition of the Secretary/Treasurer, if applicable, shall be as follows:
(1). The incumbent Secretary/Treasurer will work with the new Secretary/Treasurer in transition for a period of one (1) month.
(2). Audits
(a). An audit shall be performed no later then December 15th following the election.
(b). Auditors shall be outgoing Board members and the newly elected officers, plus one member from the general membership.
(c). Audit results shall be presented to the general membership at the first membership meeting following audit completion.
Article IV Meetings, Section A

Article VI Range Construction and Operation, Section A and Section B.
From:
Section A. The ranges will be constructed and maintained to comply at all times with current NFAA specifications.
Section B. All shoots will be conducted to comply with current NFAA regulations except when specifically stated otherwise.
To:
Section A. The ranges will be constructed and maintained to comply at all times with current applicable affiliated archery organization (NFAA/ASA/IBO/FITA/etc) specifications.
Section B. All shoots will be conducted to comply with current applicable affiliated archery organization (NFAA/ASA/IBO/FITA/etc) regulations except when specifically stated otherwise.
