We have been very flexible in the past when someone has forgotten their money to make side arrangements to pay someone back. We also thought the pandemic was going to last 2 months and that we could pay each other back quickly. However, when the Chapter gets to be a larger group, we might not have such a collegial group keeping track of things. I’m afraid that down the road there could be a claim of vote-buying. So, I encourage everyone to pay their own dues from here on out. If you need assistance with this, speak with an officer on how to get it done. We can find accommodations for no computer access or whatever. As for last year’s dues, Andrea, John paid for you and according to our records you were a member in 2020. I’m not sure how the two of you worked out paying him back. Finally, I just put a reminder in my calendar to remind everyone in December 2021 and Jan 2022 to pay dues before our Jan 2022 business meeting. I have failed to make paying dues such a technical aspect of things in the past. I will correct that going forward.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#2F5496'>Kristen Jocums, J.D.<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#2F5496'>Mediator and Parent Coordinator<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#2F5496'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='color:#2F5496'>Peaceful Family Solutions, LLC<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#2F5496'>993 NW Circle Blvd. Ste.
