Re: Convention
We all need to band together to bring about some needed changes. The AHS
belongs to all members not just those that can and do attend the convention.
Not attending does NOT equal not being interested. Some can not afford to
attend; others may not be able to attend for business or personal reasons.
Changing the bylaws seems like a logical solution BUT how successful
will that be if our leadership only follows the AHS rules and bylaws when
they choose to.
Count my vote for change! We can't succeed if we don't try.
