solclose to the New Year, as it did this year. There was discussion about the
prps and cons of this meeting time. The primary advantage is the ability of
the society to obtain favorable contract prices from hotels. Moving the
meeting to the second week will erode the ability of the Society to get these
lower rates and likely raise the cost of registration and hotel room rates.
I Scott Glenn moved that when the Annual Meeting begins within a few
daYs of the New Year, the Executive Committee shall bring it to the attention
ofjthe membership at the Annual Meeting two years prior, for discussion and
a ~ecision on a possible change in meeting dates. Bob Devlin seconded the
mbtion, The motion was carried by the membership.
