General Membership Meeting

General Membership Meeting

Our next general membership meeting is scheduled for Tuesday May 31st at 8:00 pm at YI Sharon, 100 Ames Street Sharon, MA. Please mark your calendars  -
 
The Agenda will be:
Board Elections - See the proposed slate below -
Open issues - Open to general membership for discussion
 
The board proposed slate (below) was developed based on current board members agreeing to stay on the board and from responses to the April 20th email sent out to all members (Subject line, “Want to join the YI Board as we onboard our new Rabbi?”).  Rabbi Sendor has reviewed and approved this slate.
 
Please note that in addition to the slate proposed by the board, members may nominate themselves for board positions and be included in the May 31 vote. Instructions for additional nominations can be found below.  You may also reference Article IV of the Revised Constitution and By-laws - Adopted August 30, which is on the YI web site.
