Your Board at Work

The Board met today, with excellent attendance. All Board members attended, except for one who was excused. Five committee chairs also attended. We do the things that boards of organizations usually do--approve the minutes and the treasurer's report, pass around correspondence received, present bills for reimbursement, discuss new and old business, and hear committee reports. As you may have expected, we have some very active committees. Today Jim explained the workings of the Wish and Spin to us. We are ordering new mugs to hand out, mainly to our program presenters. We have agreed to have an activity booth at the Dia de los Ninos (Childrens festival) in May. We will have signup sheets available soon and are looking for help from a little before 2 pm until a little after 5 pm.) Our activity will be children creating book marks using our logo and the KAH logo. The bookmark can be used in a book that the children will receive at another booth. KAH is 60% above their goal for meals packaged. Aktion Club members really enjoyed hearing KHAS-TV weather personality Jon (or is it John) Walsh speak at one of their two recent meetings. Club advisors met and planned out the rest of the Aktion Club calendar for the year. Margaret and her committee have things well in hand for Pancake Day on March 18. We will participate in the Brain Team Symposium in mid-April, but not Creative Kids' Day at the mall--we understand that it is cancelled. Two of our members will attend the Kiwanis International Convention this June.
