I think it would be appropriate to gather data during the year so that we can make an informed opinion as to whether the club is better off that the amendment failed.

Such data would include but not be limited to:

1)number of new chapter members who joined during the year
2)number of new chapter members that have also joined the international
3)number of current chapter members
4)number of current chapter and international members
5)number of current chapter member that are not presently international member who have joined the international
6)number of current chapter and international members members who have quit the international

I'm sure the above questios could be worked on
