[NFBOH-Cleveland] Cleveland Board and its Chairs

[Suzanne Turner]

Cleveland,

 

On November 8, 2017, the first Board meeting was brought to order and
Secretary, Cheryl Fields will send out the minutes shortly.

 

One of the topics was the appointment of Committee Chairs.  In addition, I
have assigned members to serve on various committees.  However, this is not
definite.  Everyone has the right to agree or discuss a better fit for
service.  I am positive that all members will get involved and become ready
to work for 2018.  I will speak to all Chairpersons prior to the meeting on
Friday to discuss their members who were appointed.  Then, I will call each
member to discuss what particular committee was suggested.

 

Below you will find the Committee and the Chairs and also announcements that
you should take notice.

 

Thank you for your cooperation and see you on Friday at the Chapter meeting.


 

The agenda will be posted on Wednesday, November 15, 2017.  Please read the
agenda.
