In Accordance with Article IV of the By-Laws the 2016 Annual Meeting will be held Thursday,

September 29th, 2016, at the Emmitsburg Public Library, 300 South Seaton Avenue,

Emmitsburg, MD, starting at 6:00 pm.

The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to review the past year's operations, discuss and approve

the proposed 2017 Budget, and discuss other business as may properly come before the

members.

There are currently Five (5) Members serving on the Board of Directors. Those members consist

of Ed Brogden, Sandra Isaacson, Jenni Joy, Kendall Moore, and Steve Valentine. The Directors

serve a term of three (3) years and the existing terms will expire in 2018.

To reach quorum we need 18 (25% of 70 lots) lot owners present in person and/or by proxy. If

quorum is not achieved at the Annual Meeting scheduled on September 29th, 2016, the meeting

will be adjourned and reconvened on the same date by a majority of those present using the

legal notice as required by Section 5-206 will be published in the Frederick News Post on Friday,

The procedure authorized by Article IV., Section 4.6 and 4.7 of the By-Laws states: “If any meeting of

members cannot be organized because a quorum has not attended, the members who are present, either

in person or by proxy, may adjourn and reconvene the meeting in accordance with the provisions and

requirements of Section 5-206 of the Corporations and Associations Article, Annotated Code of Maryland

(1993 Repl. Vol.), as from time to time amended.” “The members present thereat shall have the power to

adjourn the meeting from time to time and call an additional meeting giving at least fifteen (15) days -

notice. At the additional meeting, the members present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum.”

The requirements of Section 5-206 are on the reverse side.

Proxy, and Copy of Section 5-206.
