SAA needs to be informed about the newly elected officers. Olivia Solis reported about the planning of the educational trips. The entire web-site is undergoing a make over that will make it easier to navigate. Francesca Marini reported about the member-survey she is conducting. An e-mail message has been sent out to reach all current members, inviting them to declare their status.
Some responses are already in.
Francesca Marini proposed to create an e-mail discussion list once the names of all currents members are known, and also proposed to organize activities to involve the members who cannot participate to the meetings because of time conflicts. Due to time conflicts that prevent many members from participating to the meetings, a time change was discussed. Meeting on Wednesdays instead of Mondays was proposed, but the majority of the members present at the meeting declared their impossibility to come at that time. Mark Holmes and Olivia Solis proposed possible strategies. The officers will concentrate on planning activities for next year, after consulting with the Chapter's members.
