Revised bylaws were prepared and approved at the chapter's annual meeting on November 5, 2021. The Chapter’s current bylaws are posted on the Chapter’s public website at this URL: https://www.amc-wma.org/bylaws. Below is a summary of what was revised and why.

What’s the best way to travel from the US/Canada border to the ocean? By boat of course!
