Departemental d'Illinois 8/40
Salon 21
La Boutique des Huit Chapeaux et Quarante Femmes
Constitution, Bylaws, and Standing Rules
Dream 8 & 40 Constitution, Bylaws, and Standing Rules into updated reality...and avoid nightmares.
​
Each Salon should have available:
-
A current copy of your Salon's approved documents
-
A current copy of the Departemental Constitution, Bylaws, and Standing Rules
-
A current copy of the National Constitution, Bylaws, and Standing Rules
​
Your Salon documents should be reviewed or revised often. The best practice is to choose a portion to discuss at every Salon meeting. There is no mandated template. The 8 and 40 handbook is online on this website and the National website (www.8and40.org); pages 38-51 can be used as your template, or we can provide one for you.
​
An updated copy of your Salon documents should be sent to this Chairman for review and signature by June 1, 2026. Send a copy of your reviewed and signed documents to the Departemental La Secretaire and Departemental L'Avocate.
​
At La Marche, an award will be presented to each salon that has current documents reviewed during this administrative year.
