NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING OF THE WEST POINT SOCIETY OF COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA, INC.

Pursuant to Article VI, Section 6.2 of the Bylaws of the West Point Society of Columbia, South Carolina (the “Society”) and Section 33-31-702 of the South Carolina Code, notice is hereby given of a special meeting of the regular membership of the West Point Society of Columbia, South Carolina, Inc. on

SATURDAY, 13 FEBRUARY 2016 AT 2:00 P.M.
AT THE RICHLAND COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY, SOUTHEAST BRANCH
7421 GARNER’S FERRY ROAD, COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA

This meeting was requested by ten regular members of the Society, in accordance with the Society’s bylaws. The purpose of this meeting is to elect a board of directors to serve in accordance with the Society’s bylaws. Because the Society has not conducted scheduled elections in accordance with its bylaws, the terms of all but two of the Society’s directors and of all of the Society’s officers have lapsed. The board is thus unable to obtain a quorum to meet and conduct business. An election is required to reconstitute the board of directors.

Questions may be directed to

Pat Canary ’62 (803) 463-7301  patcanary@hotmail.com

or

Jeff Jacobs ’79 (803) 414-1103  JAJacobs79@earthlink.net

A quorum of ten regular members of the Society is necessary to convene the special meeting and conduct the election. A regular member of the Society is defined as any USMA graduate or any honorably discharged former cadet.

According to the Society’s bylaws, the board of directors shall consist of one representative from each ten-year group of classes: 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s; and the senior active duty graduate stationed at Ft. Jackson or his/her designee. If you are interested in serving on the board, please contact Pat Canary.
