D. Ronald took the floor and advised the Society that P.J. had resigned as Secretary/Treasurer. According to the Bylaws the Board of Directors should appoint a replacement when there is a vacancy in an office. This replacement will serve until the next election. The Board appointed Cindy Guthrie and she accepted effective July 20. After the June meeting there was an issue that arose concerning a motion that Joann felt had been changed. Ronald and Dianne stressed to the Society that any corrections should be discussed and made at the meetings at the appropriate time and not by email or other channels. Dianne stressed she always leaves plenty of time for corrections after the minutes are read. The Society always strives to be open and fair to all members.
