Committee Chair Thread - October 2015

[LisaSelk]

Bump…

Quick Reminder: Alex and the rest of the Board have requested that all committees have their meeting scheduled by today, October 3rd…

I am tagging all current chairs and asking them to schedule a meeting between October 8th and 17th for Chair discussions by October 3rd to allow members to plan accordingly.

I am on my cell phone, so didn’t check to see if all the committees’ meetings have been posted on TALK yet or not… I just wanted to toss out a reminder in-case anyone might have forgotten to post their meeting(s)…

Edit to add… It was still October 3rd when I began typing the post… I just happen to “type” (swipe) slow on my phone…

[AlexRhodes]

Jewelry, Logistics, Machine Shop and Metal Shop are the only committees where no one has emailed admin to declare they are running. Tagging/emailing current chairs to see if they are running again. Anyone is eligible to run, we just need an email that you are running by 8PM tomorrow (member meeting).

@AnneGullett @ALLEN(email sent) @bgangwere @texastboneking @Danny @LeeCJones

Please check top post for current chair candidates. I have updated it as we received emails.

thanks to all that are participating.

[Bill]

The Metal Shop committee met tonight. Lee is running again.

[LisaSelk]

For those wanting a one-stop post on when & where the upcoming committee meetings are going to be held, I tracked down as much information as I could from TALK and our Events Calendar, and came up with the following… The list should be in Date/Time order.

NOTE: I’ll do my best to keep my eyes open for changes/updates; but, feel free to update/correct any information on this post yourself, if needed (please add a comment on the bottom of the post to let us know the reason for the edit… Thanks!)
