== Purpose ==
The purpose of this meeting was to continue discussion of the new bylaws. As we persue 501(c)(3) status, we were adivsed to have our bylaws ready before the approval process. Christian Hain researched templates online and found [https://nonprofitally.com/start-a-nonprofit/nonprofit-bylaws/ an annotated template ] that uses excerpts from existing non-profits, including the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits “Sample Bylaws with Membership,” the ASPCA’s “sample shelter Bylaws,” Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and the Bylaws of the Special Olympics.
The idea is to start fresh with sample bylaws written for 501(c)(3) non-profits instead of trying to fit examples into our current bylaws.
