Committee Reports

Social /Training & Development

Old Business

LBMAA tax consequences – will need to rewrite bylaws to reflect shift. Seek assistance from LBMAA member Jeff Vogel was suggested.
Board vacancy – Marnie Piehl has stepped off of the board. Since the annual meeting is impending, the open position will be filled by the general membership, rather than appointed by the board. Susie will email the membership at large to gauge interest in the vacancy.
Class Rep – bylaws indicate that a class rep should be selected from and by the most current class. Susie will email the most recent class to see who is interested in the role and will conduct an election if necessary.
