Subject: [Cabs] CABS Minutes 3-14
March 14, 2009
The CABS board meeting was held at the CCB. Present were Marty,
Nijat, Melissa, Arielle, and Laurie from the board as well as several
other members and Chris Foster.
Marty will take responsibility for opening the CABS bank account and
will get Nijat and Diane on as co-signers.
Terry Garrett spoke with Lou Tutt about the CSDB seminar. Lou prefers
that we meet with them on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday afternoon
or evening when the high school (college-bound) and transition
students are available.
The potential proposed dates are April 23, 30, May 7, and may 14 (all
Thursdays).
Melissa and Nijat will contact Lou by Friday, March 20 to propose the
four dates listed and get his top two confirmed preferences and then
will contact the rest of the board to make a final decision.
The event will potentially begin around 6:00 p.m. and be an informal
ice cream social and networking event with a brief agenda. We will
also bring literature and invite students to join or provide contact
information.
We discussed the possibility of holding a seminar for the CCB high
school summer students right before the national convention and
perhaps also a simple program for the elementary kids (also late
June).
Melissa will discuss these ideas with Julie and Brent and discuss more
details at the next board meeting.
Nijat will make a Braille contact list for CABS and other NFB
resources including parents of blind children, NFB of Colorado office,
NewsLine, CABS board, etc.
Maurice will burn more CD's.
The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for Sunday, March 29.
Nehemiah will investigate a free conferencing service for CABS to use
in place of the affiliate conference line.
Respectfully submitted,
Arielle Silverman, Secretary, CABS
