MINUTES OF THE WINCHESTER CHAPTER OF THE N.F.B.

June 18, 2022

The meeting was called to order by President Chris Walker at 10:06 AM.
including members and guests, there were 12 folks present .

Chris Walker led our members in the NFB Pledge.

Daniel Perry came up with this months Ice Breaker question.  He asked
us to tell what we like to do on the nicest days of Summer.

Wayne Williams read the minutes of the previous meeting.  They were
approved as read.

Chris told us the Stanley Barns is slowly recovering from his fall,
and Mary Green says she is just about back to normal after her stomach
operation.

Jim Walker read the April Treasurers Report and it was approved as
read.

We were told plans for a Summer Outing were nearly finalized.  We
would skip a regular meeting next month, and get together on July
23rd.  We would show up at Glory Days around four PM, for an early
dinner.  Chapter members and their immediate family members were
invited.  RSVP's back to Chris were requested.

Chris asked James Shobert to tell us about some of his plans for
establishing Chapter committees for various causes and projects.
Wayne Williams would head up the Public Communications committee, and
James would head up the Outreach and Resources committee.  Lea
Schiefele volunteered to be a Co-Chairperson on these committees.
Since this is just the opening discussion on this subject, it will
take some sorting out.

The meeting adjourned at around 11:08 AM, so the Auditing Committee could do their work.

Respectively submitted,
Jim Green
Recording Secretary
 
MINUTES OF THE WINCHESTER
CHAPTER OF THE N.F.B.

July 23, 2022

Once again, we had our Summer Brunch- luncheon in July , instead of a
meeting.  It was held at Glory days.  The food was good, and the
fellowship was even better.  No official business was conducted, but
we had a great time.  None of the eighteen attendees went away hungry.

Respectively submitted,
Jim Green
Recording Secretary


MINUTES OF THE WINCHESTER
CHAPTER OF THE N.F.B.

There was a "phone-call," meeting of the Chapter Board, held around
the turn of the month.  We were contacted by Samantha Ellis.  She was
looking for financial help.

She was confined to a group home, with no other means of support.  We
were assured by her councilors, these needs were not covered by her
current finances.  She needed around $100, and it might greatly
improve her enjoyment of life.  We agreed on this contribution, with
the stipulation that it would be a one-time grant.  Wayne Williams
took care of making the purchases and getting them to her.

Respectively submitted,
Jim Green
Recording Secretary
