Report on CLE training;  Joe Dilibert/Don Medley/Anne Zachry

Anne Zachry, Joe Dilibert and Don Medley reported on the CLE training.  It was felt that it was good. Lt. Gov. Robinson joined in the comments as this was the first time the training included more that just Division 42 Clubs - this was regional training so we were able to meet and converse with people from the clubs in the other two Divisions in our region. 

Club Magazine items

Anne Zachry discussed the club magazine, particularly ways of receiving items for publication.  She has set the Club up on FACEBOOK which should help.  She also presented an idea for a contest that asks for ideas for new projects for the Club.  Quarterly these will be reviewed and the best would result in 5 tickets in the toilet bowl.  She moved the idea, Linda Thayer-Gaboury seconded - passed. 

Kiwanis Doctors -Anne Zachry/Joe Dilibert

Anne Zachry has been in touch with Cal-Nev-Ha about the Kiwanis Doctors Program.  With this program, the doctors would conduct PTP training sessions for local medical personal.  The Club would need to make contact with a local medical facility.  There may be the expense of snacks and lunch and maybe some duplication of materials.  Cal-Nev-Ha reports that most of this kind of expense has traditionally been covered by the hospital where the training is held.  A question was asked as to the continuing education credits provided by this training.  Anne will follow up.  It was moved by Walter Metcalf that the Club move forward with this project, Cecilia Rexford seconded, - passed. 

Peanut Day - Joe Dilibert

District Life Membership - Don Medley

An email has been received from Division recommending that clubs consider a Division Life Membership for long time members as a way to recognize their service.  A membership costs $487.50.  Don Medley asked the board to think about this and if they want to do it, who should receive it.  Please remember that the Club has already paid for two major awards this year.
