This is your chance to get your draft resolutions or resolution ideas to me before Friday, as one of our newest members of the South-central chapter has done. Remember that the Whereas cclause describes a problem and the Be IT Resolved clause states how we propose to solve the problem, for example, new or amended laws or regulations. Please send your drafts or basic resolution proposals to the email address given at the end of my signature block.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Last but not least, I need chapter presidents to appoint a representative to both the resolutions and nominating committees. There are three at large board positions up for election. The resolutions committee will convene at 7pm on Friday evening in the Flint Hills ballroom of the hotel. The nominating committee follows immediately thereafter. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Meanwhile, enjoy the rest of your week and try to stay warm.
