Constitution! 

There is a new IPPS Eastern Region constitution to consider and vote on at the annual general meeting on September 25th during the Annual Conference in Newark, Delaware. HERE is the revised constitution with additions in red and changes in blue for your consideration. The 2012 version of the Constitution is also provided so you can compare the two documents. The constitutional revision project was undertaken to better reflect the current operation of the Eastern Region.

This notice is provided according to the constitutional requirement of 60 days advance notice. Only dues-paying members have a vote. Votes may also be submitted by proxy to the Executive Secretary-Treasurer no later than September 15.
