THIS SHOOT IS OPEN TO ALL MILITARY SHOOTERS WITH A VALID MILITARY ID OR CAC CARD. ALL RESERVISTS (ACTIVE OR INACTIVE) WITH A VALID ID OR CAC CARD ARE ELIGIBLE TO ATTEND IAW A 2011 BOARD OF DIRECTORS DECISION. ALL HONORABLY DISCHARGED VETERANS AND ALL SPOUSES ARE ELIGIBLE TO ATTEND IAW A 2013 GENERAL MEMBERSHIP DECISION. FOREIGN COUNTRY MILITARY SHOOTERS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO ATTEND. ALL EXCEPT RM, MV, AND DEPENDENTS MAY SHOOT ON INTERSERVICE TEAMS. General Membership Meetings are information meetings for the Membership where you have the opportunity to ask questions of the Officers and Directors. Motions that require approval of something must be presented and voted on at the Director's Meetings. Per the By-Laws the Directors are responsible for managing AFSA. The General Membership only votes on two items: By-Law Amendments, and the Election of Officers and Directors. We were off track on this for a number of years so I know it sounds like we changed how you interact with the Officers and Directors, but that was not the case. We are abiding by Article IV, Section 1 of the By-Laws. |
