[nfbwatlk] Greater Seattle Chapter Minutes

[noaprlfoo at aol.com]

Mike, 

You could check into having Mexican delivered or pizza.

Yes, I am finally back on line and after about two weeks of lurking ( I really love to lurk, it just pleases my whimsy.) I will start to comment again.

Posting minutes does bring us moretogether, with insight as to what is happening in our sister affiliates

Regaurds to All,

Kay Burrows.

Great job, Andrea.
?
I think it's a
wonderful
idea to put minutes of chapter meetings on the list. It's another way of 
bringing the affiliate close together, keeping us all in touch with what's going 
on around the affiliate and serving as a wellspring of ideas for topics for 
meetings?of other chapters.
?
A couple of ?minor corrections: the spring get-together isn't technically a 
spring conference as we've traditionally held them; it's a meeting of the Board 
of Directors and chapter presidents and other interested persons, all of whom 
are encouraged to participate freely. There will be a definite NFB philosophy 
component
as well as discussion of future affiliate projects, affiliate 
financing/fund-raising and perhaps a "why do we do things the way we do" 
discussion. Also, since Dr. Maurer will be with us, I'm sure he'd be more than 
happy to answer questions concerning our national movement.
?
Also, since Gary and I weren't able to come to a satisfactory agreement with the 
caterer (we were going to be charged over $40 for a chicken-and-rice dinner), we 
won't be charging $50 for meals. Breakfast is still complimentary and we can eat 
lunch in the restaurant or at the various eateries in the neighborhood. We're 
still working on a venue for a communal dinner. No guarantees, though.
?
Again, thanks, Andrea, for publishing the Seattle chapter minutes on the list. I 
urge other chapter secretaries to "go and do thou likewise".
