Dear EAA Members family and friends,

Thank you for your support for the new EAA Chapter 322, Johannesburg (Jhb) Exco. We will make the most of this opportunity to serve our community as best possible. Committee members will be invited to join us to have a full working group that covers all of the functional areas required. Thanks to those that have already agreed to join the committee. An announcement will be made once this process is complete.

Once again, thank you to the 2025 Chapter 322, Jhb committee, who stepped down on 6 November 2025. All Chapters have autonomy and will make decisions based on what is best for them.

Chapter By-Laws

One of the first tasks that the committee will tackle in 2026, is a review of the By-Laws, which were adopted without consideration of our existing Constitution or Manual of Procedures, both of which guide our ARO. We are committed to having the By-Laws in place, however these will be personalised to EAA Chapter 322, Jhb as is the practice in the US.  Article VII, Section 7 of the adopted By-Laws makes it possible for the Exco to “pass any resolution or authorise any act of the Chapter”.  This decision was made by 5 of 5 committee members.  The adoption of the presented document will be overturned and updated to align with Chapter requirements before being published.
