I have previously mentioned the idea of providing an opportunity for State Associations to be re-chartered in conjunction with our 50th Anniversary. Attached is my formal proposal and vision for how I believe this could be done in accordance with the current Bylaws. This will be on the August 22nd EC Agenda, and I'm requesting the Executive Council's review, discussion, and approval.

John - if appropriate, you can share this with the History Committee/Past Presidents in advance of our meeting to get their feedback.
