Informal Notes from the
October
20, 2012 Board
of Directors Meeting
Our Board of Directors is the group of members who jointly oversee
the operation and activities of the Association. While some Boards are either elected or
appointed, our Board members are the past Presidents of the Association. Our Board is governed by our Constitution,
which is posted elsewhere on this web site. In short, our Board manages the Association. Our Board has been meeting once a year in
October just prior to the Milwaukee Chapter Luncheon. These informal notes are to acquaint you
with what happened last October 20.
- Present
were Directors Caryl Braatan,
Gordon Geil, Bob Guhr, Rod Ewert,
Dan Sylvester, Don Mundth, President Bill Regner, Vice President Curtis Schmidt and General
Secretary-Treasurer (GST) Dianne Kopplema
- BillRegner & Curtis Schmidt reported they
audited the GST’s books on
10/10/12 and said all was in
order.
- It was proposed that an amount equal to $1.00 per member be
given to each chapter to assist with meeting expenses.
- Curtis
Schmidt was installed as General President and Robert Stewart of the
Milwaukee Chapter was nominated and approved as the General Vice President,
though a comment was made about considering someone from another
chapter. Bill Regner
joined the Directors as a Past President.
- Most
of the time was spent on presentation of proposed Constitution
changes. Changes will be
submitted to Chapters and voted on at the chapter luncheons with the
board to approve or disapprove on
October 19, 2013.
- The
GST wants to discard all records over 5 years old. Dan
Sylvester has incurred some set-up costs for Association coffee mugs,
shirts, hats and similar items in an amount of around $200.00 and it was
proposed that such amount be reimbursed to Dan. Details on the items, which are
available to all, can be obtained from Dan.
The
meeting adjourned around
11:30 am. |
