Officers meeting minutes, April 3 2018


Officer's Meeting Minutes, April 3, 2018

Present: Randy, Nancy, Julia, Lynne, Uliana.

Randy had 3 things to discuss.
1.   Pathways sign up for everybody, even if you don’t plan to do it yet, just take the assessment in Pathways, especially if you are a mentor. Assessments results may surprise you. Will make an announcement about it for everyone.

2.   In May 19 we celebrate club’s 15th birthday! Let’s celebrate on Tuesday May 15th as a bday party! Jean will have a signup sheet. Nancy suggested have speakers talk about celebration, TT too. Accepted.

3.   Randy suggested we change our timing rules matching the contest rules – after the red light comes up – no more lights come up, just to get use to the rules. Jim added a new timing sheet to the notebook. Accepted.

Giri was not here, so we went over the list of renewed/not renewed memberships. Discussed one by one the reasons behind not renewal – mostly was work related, and not connected to our club reasons. Or so they said at least J

Julia suggested attracting more young people. Nancy offered to advertise in colleges – Bothell UW and Cascadia. Randy came up with an idea to have our TM meeting at the college sometimes, invite students. Nancy will connect with the folks at UW, and set up the meeting there.

Nancy reported that she had updated links in Meetups and our website to go to our new FB page.

Lynne offered to reserve a chair for Robert in the middle of the room to videotape our speeches. Sergeant in arms should make sure nobody sits there. Barb may substitute Robert while he’s absent. Accepted.

Adjorned.
