Thank you to everyone who voted on the by-laws. The poll closed Wednesday with all positive votes. The by-laws will become the guiding documents for Fandom Rocks.

Voting will be posted shortly after the nominations close. Understand we are asking for a commitment to Fandom Rocks for the next year to two years, depending on the position. We hope you will enjoy your role so much that you will stay longer!

If you need a refresher on the officer roles, you can review them in the by-laws on Google Documents.

As a part of the process of becoming a NFP, Fandom Rocks must create by-laws. We have produced a draft for review and voting. We hope you will take some time to review the information, send us your feedback, and then vote. Voting on the by-laws will continue until Wednesday, June 18th. At that time, if they have passed we will continue on with elections. If they have not passed we will review all feedback, incorporate them into the by-laws, and re-vote.

You can review the drafted by-laws on Google Documents.

As you review the by-laws, keep an eye on the officer roles. We will be holding nominations and elections immediately after the by-laws are passed.
