Treasurer’s Report
We reviewed the budget and actual and we are on track.

Our current membership is 71.

Leadership Conference
The usual 3 day conference in Las Vegas has been cancelled for this year. However, there is a 1 day leadership training prior to the International Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. We have decided not to attend due to the cost.

Events

Job Search Workshop—February 28
This workshop’s arrangements have been made. There is still room in the class. Jennifer drafted the postcard reminder, Steve got the stamps and mailing labels, Debra and Gerry addressed and Steve will mail after the meeting.

Satellite Seminar—April 23
Gerry talked with Janet Kelly at CSEB about the continuation programs. Neither type seems to fit what we want to do. Gerry has a call into Lisa Zachan and will work with her to host the April seminar.

Networking Event—June
Debra will check with the Pyramid Ale where we have had a previous event. The rest of us will look for other venues.
