On Friday, August 1, 2025, GLAR members will be asked to approve a slate of changes to the association’s bylaws in order to create a more responsive, modernized, and nimble Board of Directors.

These changes are being proposed to bring the association’s governance structure in line with best practices adopted across the non-profit, business, and association industries to ensure that GLAR stays relevant to the needs of our members and our communities. Adopting these changes would allow the board composition to be better aligned with the skills, experience, and preparation needed for effective governance in today’s complex and litigious environment.

Members can learn more about the proposed changes at two upcoming membership town halls:

Friday, July 11
