At the June\u00a0CORE\u00a0meeting a vote was taken to amend the Bylaws to remove the frequency\u00a0\u00a0of CORE monthly meetings, so that the Executive can decide when monthly\u00a0meetings should take place. The vote was unanimous from the members.\u00a0\u00a0Consequently, it was announced that CORE would not hold meetings in July and August this year. CORE monthly meetings will resume September 24, 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n
