So let us ask the board for crying out loud.  I humbly request a phone 
or zoom meeting of the board to talk about this.  If a no vote is given 
we will do nothing but sit on our pitty pots and moan.

It has been a long-standing policy of the federation that any actions an individual, local chapter, or division chooses to take must be approved by the national president, the chapter or division board of directors before projects such as setting up division websites can go forward. I know this from first-hand experience, and have been called out by none other than Dr. Maurer for wanting to conduct an activity at a past national convention without his approval. This is right in the organization's constitution. All of the ideas we've discussed here are great but we need to be sure the division board of directors approves of them.
