Chapter 57 - Officers, Directors and Members
5755 - Time of holding meetings of members.

     § 5755.  Time of holding meetings of members.
        (a)  Regular meetings.--The bylaws of a nonprofit corporation
     may provide for the number and the time of meetings of members,
     but unless otherwise provided in a bylaw adopted by the members
     at least one meeting of the members of a corporation which has
     members, as such, entitled to vote, shall be held in each
     calendar year for the election of directors, at such time as
     shall be provided in or fixed pursuant to authority granted by
     the bylaws. Failure to hold the annual or other regular meeting
     at the designated time shall not work a dissolution of the
     corporation. If the annual or other regular meeting shall not be
     called and held within six months after the designated time, any
     member may call such meeting at any time thereafter.
        (b)  Special meetings.--Special meetings of the members may
     be called at any time by the board of directors, or members
     entitled to cast at least 10% of the votes which all members are
     entitled to cast at the particular meeting, or by such other
     officers or persons as may be provided in the bylaws. At any
     time, upon written request of any person who has called a
     special meeting, it shall be the duty of the secretary to fix
     the time of the meeting, which shall be held not more than 60
     days after the receipt of the request. If the secretary shall
     neglect or refuse to fix the time of the meeting, the person or
     persons calling the meeting may do so.
        (c)  Adjournments.--Adjournments of any regular or special
     meeting may be taken, but any meeting at which directors are to
     be elected shall be adjourned only from day to day, or for such
     longer periods not exceeding 15 days each, as the members
     present entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes which
     all members present and voting are entitled to cast shall
     direct, until such directors have been elected.
