Executive Council Minutes

January 21,1999
The meeting was called to order by Chapter Chair Kathy Schnake, CPP. Ms. Schnake opened
the meeting by thanking everyone for attending and had the table introduce themselves to
everyone.
Ms. Schnake presented various handouts to the group and explained the binders. Ms.
Schnake discussed the chapter's goals and requested that the various committees work to
bring in more members to the monthly meeting. Ms. Schnake then turned the meeting over to
the various committees to discuss their needs, concerns, and/or issues.
Library Committee - there is a problem with outdated books and making the chapter
members aware of the library and what books are available for their use. The suggestion
was made that the chapter requests that the various authors in the chapter donate a copy
of their books to the library. Gary will be presenting his report back to the officers
within a month on his recommendations for the library.
Programs and Professional Development - both chairmen requested assistance in selecting
timely and appropriate speakers and topics.
Membership requested clarification on the membership process and how to distribute
certificates.
Hospitality - this committee was asked to run an article in the newsletter to solicit
companies to contribute door prizes. Kendra and Ama also agreed to make phone calls to the
chapter members requesting door prize donations. Placement - John indicated that he is
training a new chairman to take over this committee.
Golf - planning has not started on this event. It was suggested that a golf course
should be locked in fairly soon. Connie and Kim agreed that this was important and will
complete this task very quickly.
Officer Recognition Day Jacquie indicated that she had several ideas on how to improve
this event.
Annual Seminar - all reports were positive on this event. This group has been working
since last year on the changes to this event.
Budget - Dennis requested budgets from all committee chairmen and reported on the
financial state of the chapter. There was a discussion on the approved new credit card
machine. It was confirmed that the machine should be purchased. The Treasurer will pursue
this issue. The meeting was adjourned
Respectfully Submitted,
