2005-2006
President Katy Brodbeck welcomed all everyone and introduced Sandy Tabio, A-O
Division Vice President/Membership.
Sandy
Tabio is a very knowledgeable IAAP member, especially in regard to bylaws. In
her own humorous way, she compared the bylaws to our skeletal system—they are
what hold our IAAP together. She was able to explain to us the importance of
using the bylaws and amendments in our votes and how these may be applied, such
as in our nomination of Cheryl Cook CPS/CAP as President-Elect of the A-O
Division.
C. Nomination for A-O Division President-Elect
Christine
Cecil brought forth the nomination of Cheryl Cook CPS/CAP as our candidate for
President-Elect of the A-O Division. Since there were no others to be
nominated, a voice vote was taken. Cheryl was unanimously nominated. She will
now compete with members from other chapters throughout the A-O Division at the
Annual Division Meeting, June 9-11, at Beaver’s
