The Convention Resolution Process is a communications vehicle you can use to your advantage. Resolutions can be submitted by Clubs and should cover any aspect of the organization not already covered in the Bylaws.
The Resolutions Process
- Clubs need to submit resolutions by Tuesday, April 23, 2024, to the Governance/Resolutions Committee.
- The Governance/Resolutions Committee will meet during the convention and choose the strongest resolutions to report to convention delegates.
-
At the convention business session, the Committee will present these resolutions for debate and vote by the convention delegates. (NOTE: Resolutions endorsed by convention delegates are non-binding and are sent to the International Board of Directors for further consideration and study.)
How to Submit Resolutions
Type resolutions on Club stationary and include the Club's name, number, and President’s signature. All resolutions should be written in standard resolution format: Whereas …, Whereas …, Whereas …, Be it resolved that the Board of Directors of Optimist International is asked to consider ….
