When you amend bylaws, you change the document (or as you stated, apply it to the original text). You do not attach them as 'amendments' like with the US Constitution. Nor do you note within the document itself that it was amended, other then by adding at the end a date. (ie, if you amend Article III, don't put a note with Article III about it being amended).


For instance.

Lets say your Bylaws state your dues are $100 a semester, and you want to change it to $125. If approved, you would edit your bylaws to now state $125.

At the end of the document, where you have have noted when your bylaws were approved, you would just add a notation that they were amended.

again, for instance:

Adopted: July 15, 2002
Amended: July 1, 2003
April 20, 2004
