[Ohio-talk] Reading Minutes at Meetings

[Karen]

RobbYThis us Karen I was secretary for years for our chapter I do believe it is necessary to read the minutes you forget not everyone has a computer and they still deserve just as much information as the next person I do believe minutes need to be very thorough this to me is just all about keeping good recordsWhen I did minutes we had an introduction with a prayer then old business new business telephone report entertainment report as well  just an example for u Wanda Sloan has problems with a computer as I type so individuals like her would never hear the minutes unless you read them aloud at the meeting 
Thank you,Karen Noles

Subject: [Ohio-talk] Reading Minutes at Meetings 

Hello all:

 

I am now the Secretary for the NFB of the Greater Miami Chapter in Dayton.
I am curious to know if Secretaries of chapters around the state are reading
their minutes at each meeting.  I personally feel like this is an
unnecessary practice since we send the minutes out via email and I maintain
that it is the responsibility of each member to read the minutes themselves.
Plus, I'd like to use our time more effectively.  I write pretty detailed
minutes.  While I do not write out everything that is said, I do provide
enough information so that someone who was unable to attend can get a very
good idea of what was discussed at the meeting.  That being said, however, I
do understand that there are some people who may not have access to email.
My thought was to put this as a question before our chapter but I was asked
to do some research on it first.  So, please let me know what you think!

 

Thanks,

Robby
