Thanks Theresa- We should all be taking this into consideration,  
especially if we want to travel to the national conference next year.  
Which would be awesome. I hope that I can go and see you all there!

At the next meeting I'd like to talk about fundraising, I know that  
Sasha and I went to a lot of booths at the conference. Can at our next  
meeting, everyone come with some ideas of what to do for fundraisers.  
Actually, let me re-phrase that in teacher mode: At the next meeting,  
everyone should bring ideas for fundraisers. Great!

And how about, at the next meeting, everyone try to bring ONE NEW  
MEMBER and tell them that we are going to start planning for next  
years conference. We can talk about this last one and discuss what a  
great experience it was, and try to get more of the new members  
involved. Bring it up in your classes!

I'm going to ask everyone to come to a meeting this week on Friday. I  
dislike this time but it seems like the only thing that worked. If you  
are getting these emails I'll expect you to come, if you can't please  
let me know and let me know what time works better for you. I know  
this is getting strict but the only way we'll be able to get things  
done is to have regular meetings that are well attended.

Thanks,
Yvette
