It would be great if you can encourage your members to make the trip down to Rocky on the 22nd, it is important to reinforce the desire of the membership to move this forward…

..plus maybe a chance to go for a ride out west.

Cheers

Why do you need a petition to get around your own bylaws? Are the club bylaws that flawed that you need 250 votes to change them? Maybe fill in a little more information on why there needs to be a "special meeting."

provincial government rule that is in the societys act makes you do a proper club wide vote with a clear majority vote of total members not just the ones that showed up to the meeting
