[Ansteorra-announce] [Announcements] Request for Comment-Medical Equipment proposal

[Patrick Anderson]

Upon discussions with the Society Chirurgeon and our legal advisors, I
have requested the Board put a proposed change to the Corporate Policies
out for comment.

While the Board and Corporate Officers recognize that a number of people
in the SCA are trained in the use of automated external defibrillator or
AEDs, we are concerned about the continued maintenance and upkeep
obligations for groups that own these devices. If the SCA permits the
groups to own these devices, it would be putting the responsibility on
the group to continue to maintain the device, keeping it in good working
order, and and ensuring its availability at events and practies.

Accordingly, I have asked the Board to put the following out for
comment:

New Draft Corporate Policy (to be added to the corporate policies and
those policies renumbered accordingly):

There shall be no ownership or possession of the Medical Equipment 
listed on Appendix A of these Corporate Policies by any branch or 
recognized guild of the Society for Creative Anachronism, Inc.


New Addition to Corporate Policies:

 Appendix A:

 1.      Automated External Defibrillators (AED)


 The Directors request comments from the membership regarding this
 proposed revision no later than October 1st, 2009. Please send them
