District Directors’ Meeting
The November fall district
director meetings are finished and
it’s now time to prepare for the dis
trict DHIA Winter meetings to be
held in January of February.
The districts that will need to
hold meeting are the districts
where an election needs to take
place. It was agreed at the fall dis
trict meeting that other districts
may meet with those districts
where elections need to take place
and an agenda will be sent to the
local committees for them to make
those decisions.
The change in bylaws and new
districts is to go into effect Jan. 1,
1994. This change will separate
the state into small districts for
state representation.
The following will outline the
districts where some meeting have
been held and some need to be
organized. Those districts where
no decision was made, need to
establish a date and place.
The nominating committee
from each county will need to con
tact the other counties in their dis
trict These meetings need to take
place after Jan. 1, but before the
annual meeting scheduled for Feb.
18.
