[nfbwatlk] Greater Seattle Chapter Minutes

[Mike Freeman]

Hi, Kaye.

Welcome back to the land of the electronic living! WE missed ya!

Insofar as having food (Mexican, pizza or anything else) brought in, 
it's a no-go. The Governor House's contract with their caterer forbids 
such activities. I think we are going to find this sort of prohibition 
in more and more instances. Welcome to the modern world!

Mike

  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".
