[Nfb-greeley] meeting minutes f 12/14/13

[Marty Rahn]

Hi all,

Here are the meeting minutes from our last meeting. Thanks.

12/14/14

The meeting was called to order at 1:30 PM after we had eaten our fill of pizza and all types of other good food. People present were Janis, Diane, Linda, Cody, Marty, Melissa, Pam, Bill, Rita and John. The paypal account for the chapter is half set up. Linda doesn't have our bank account info tied to it. It is set up using nfb-greeley at nfbnet.org. Linda has her own password. This will make it easier to take credit  cards for candy bar sales. We have a few orders for candy bars off of the Colorado Talk list. People have ordered from Longmont, Denver, and Littleton. We will endeavour to get them shipped out by this next week Melissa will let Linda know when she begins having people pay so that she can make sure the Paypal account is working. Linda will try to set up the account by Monday. Pam asked about buying some candy bars and Melissa will take her order soon. Melissa will also continue to coordinate this project. Cody then turned in the $30 that he had from the candy bar sales. Jessica still has $32 from the sale of our water bottles that she needs to pay the chapter. We then moved to a discussion of potential topics we would like to begin with in January for our tech training sessions. Linda suggested training on windows 7 and also suggested that we do a topic on Zoomtext. The Iphone was also suggested as a topic. I suggested waiting until February to have an Iphone seminar so that teachers and others interested parties had time to gather student's questions or to see about bringing their students. In January, we will do a windows 7 seminar. In March, we decided to do something related to home management and to see whether Becky or Garret from 11dvr would be willing to come up and help teach this from the perspective of a rehab  teacher. Cody announced that he would get those people's names to Lisa who wanted to go to Washington Seminar, however, it doesn't look like anyone from our chapter will be going this year. The next meeting will be on January 18, 2014 at 12:00 PM at the Senior Center. Our meeting adjourned at 1:45 PM.

Respectfully subsitted,
