WHEREAS, due to the size of the SARM delegate body, facilities for conventions must be booked years in advance of the event; and

WHEREAS, it would be beneficial to SARM delegates to be able to quickly determine future convention dates;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Bylaw Number Four be amended as follows:
1. By deleting the words "An Annual Convention shall be held at such place as may be selected by the delegates attending the previous Convention and at such time as may be decided upon by the Board of Directors" in section 1 and by replacing them with the words "An Annual Convention shall be held each year on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of the second week of March and that the Convention shall be held at such place as may be selected by the Board of Directors"; and
2. By deleting the words "A Mid-term Convention shall be held at such place and time as may be decided upon by the Board of Directors" in subsection 9(a) and by replacing them with the words: "A Midterm Convention shall be held each year at such place as may be selected by the Board of Directors. The Midterm Convention shall be held on Wednesday and Thursday of the second week of November, however; (i) if one of these dates is Remembrance Day, then the following rules will apply: (a) when Remembrance Day falls on a Wednesday, the Midterm Convention will be held on Thursday and Friday of that week, and (b) when Remembrance Day falls on a Thursday, the Midterm Convention will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday of that week. (ii) if these dates conflict with a major event, then the convention may be held on such alternate dates as the Board of Directors may determine.
