Board Meeting Minutes
October 11, 2007

The conference call/Adobe Connect was facilitated by Karen Vines with Fred Davis, Rich Stup, Jeff Myers, Beth Raney, and Vicki Lewis phoning in.

Secretary Report: Fred asked Vicki to add more detail to the August minutes on the topic of the reception during inservice in December. Consensus is to budget $250 for this item, and Karen will get more details to us when she has them from Amy Gregor. This has been done and minutes were then approved. Newsletter has been posted to the website and hard copies mailed to those without email.

Vice President's Report: Karen has gotten some reports from committee chairs, and has been working on certificates and awards for the Annual Meeting. She has taken care of registration for recipients and guests. Question about whether or not to frame the team award certificates and it was decided to get another type of holder for them, since there are so many. Awards from National will be presented under Special Recognition.

Annual Meeting Report: Beth Raney reported that the theme and decorations would be simple, seasonal. We are not sure about the number of people who will attend since registration is still open. PACAA is having a luncheon with Dean Steele at the same time as our luncheon meeting, so attendance may be affected by this.

Tables will be needed for multiple copies of minutes, reports, and table displays. We should be coming out a little bit ahead on the cost of food since the meal cost for us is $10.50 plus gratuity and we charged $15. Karen reminded that awards were expensive this year, too. Rich should get a bill for the meal, and he needs to collect $100 from each of the other associations to make up the JCEP scholarship. Also, $200 from the Director's office will be forthcoming. Rich may need to inquire about this.

Treasurer's Report: See attached reports. It was noted that $350 was approved for the Extension Memories project last year. After discussion, Karen moved to carry over the amount until next year, when it will be available for this purpose. There is also Professional Development and PILD carryover.

President's Report: Fred noted that certificates from National ESP meeting will be on display at the luncheon. It was suggested that the proposed budget be posted on the website. The conference call to explore the interest in having co-hosts for the 2011 National Meeting is set for November 30. Fred, Karen will participate. JCEP conference call will be on November 2. Meeting adjourned


Vicki Lewis, Secretary
