Annual Meeting - Cancelled
The Space Coast USBC BA will be cancelling the Annual Meeting (June 13) this year and will be following USBC guidelines. USBC recommends USBC local associations postpone or suspend mass gathering events, meetings and travel in the best interest of public health due to COVID-19.
The USBC board adopted a proposal to amend USBC National Bylaws Article IV, Section E, adding a new item 15 that gives the board the authority to temporarily amend or suspend the bylaws, state, local and affiliate bylaws and the league rules and tournament rules in cases of government-declared emergencies or disasters, pandemic, attack on the United States, or any nuclear or atomic disaster.
The proposal was adopted by the USBC board effective immediately. In accordance with Article IV, Section E, Item 14 of the USBC National Bylaws, the proposal will be presented to delegates for approval at the 2021 Annual Meeting.
With many state and local associations also unable to conduct an annual meeting in 2020, the USBC board has suspended USBC Bylaw Article VI, Section A, Item 1. The suspension of the bylaw allows national delegates elected for a term ending Aug. 1, 2020, to remain in their position for the 2020-2021 season and remain eligible to attend the 2021 USBC Annual Meeting for those associations unable to elect delegates for 2021.
Members who were up for election will be continued for a year or replaced by the President’s appointee. We do want to recognize our Scholarship Winners, Hall of Fame Inductees and Tournament Winners. Acknowledgement of these members will be announced next month.
These are very challenging times and we want to be sure that our members are safe and follow the USBC guidelines.
Regards,
Space Coast USBC BA
