Programs Report:

Amy discussed a problem at the last chapter meeting concerning sufficient seating and meals for all registered attendees. The board discussed asking Sarah Cower, who will be next year’s Registration Coordinator, to take over the position before the year ends.

The Board discussed several suggestions for changes to the meeting format: more speaker time and run the meeting later; quarterly morning meetings; and half-day seminars. The morning meeting in July was very well attended. Cindy will look at next year’s schedule and determine which months we will hold morning meetings.

Amy discussed proposed topics and speakers for 2004.

Diversity Report:

No report

Communications Report:

Nancy received a new book report to publish. Judy will solicit more reports at the dinner meeting.

Workforce Education Report:

Evelyn reported that she’s working with Service First, putting together a seminar on Telework, and needs input from successful Telework programs.

Old Business:

Cornelia sent word that State Conference preparations continue to go well. Exhibit space is almost sold out. They are still looking for sponsors. Judy will check with Cornelia about table set-up and the need for volunteers. Some companies just display their handouts but have no people attending the table.

Judy reported on Laura’s work on conference handouts. She brought sample clips, which were approved. She also has prepared a draft brochure. Members had some recommended changes to the brochure which will be provided to Laura.

Kurt had some sample SHRM bookmarks and suggested we might want to get Dulles SHRM versions and hand them out at meetings. Judy said she thinks SHRM will produce these for us. Kurt will check on that.

Only one person has paid to attend the Fall Certification Study Group. Unless sufficient additional attendees are identified soon, the group will have to be cancelled for this year.

New Business:

We will look at adding to the meeting reservation confirmation some instructions on whom to call to determine if a chapter meeting has been cancelled due to weather.

Lisa reported that she’s received only two self-nominations for the 2004 Board-Nancy Streeter and Sarah Cower. She will distribute flyers at the August dinner meeting and will provide Judy with a list of open positions, so she can announce them at the meeting.

There was discussion about changes to our charitable donations to Embry Rucker. It was decided that in addition to donated items, we should accept cash donations at the meeting which can be used to purchase items for donation on behalf of the chapter.

The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
