(EXTERNAL) [board-unyoc] Update from the Exec Chair

[Stellrecht, Elizabeth]

Hi all,

I have a question about updating the procedure manual: does the board need to approve of every single thing Rita and I would like to remove and update, or is it just a final vote at the end to accept the document as we have updated it? The membership committee section of the manual is extremely outdated and we would like to remove whole sections, but I wanted to check about how to proceed before we start hacking away. Thanks!

Cheers,

Liz

Subject: (EXTERNAL) [board-unyoc] Update from the Exec Chair

Hello Everyone,
Happy Friday!
Checking the responsibilities of the Executive Chair and the timeline for when things need to be accomplished, there are several items of business that require our collective attention:
1. We need to form a nominating committee to identify willing members to serve on the Board.  Work will all be done via email and/or phone calls. Committee consists of the Chair, VC/Chair-elect, and 2 others - one from Ontario and one from New York.  If you'd like to serve, or if you know someone who might like to serve, please let me or Lorraine know ASAP.  This was due March 1st (eek!)
2. There used to be a membership committee and a communications committee. Now we have co-chairs for both of those areas to cover the responsibilities.  Procedure manual needs to be updated to reflect that change.  So, Ginger and Rachel (communications) and Liz and Rita (membership), please look at the procedure manual and send updated wording to Deb C. so she can make the appropriate edits.
3. Everyone - take a look at your section of the procedure manual for updates or edits needed.  I'd prefer we share updates and get the grunt work done before June so all we have to do that the meeting is approve it.
4. Great progress has already been made for this year's annual meeting.  We've secured a keynote speaker and a guest speaker and now the rest of the work can be done by the conference planning committee. Yeah!
5. Any updates from you all?  I have to submit a report to MLA by April 1st of our chapter activities.

Regards,
Mary Jo
