            Fall Workshop:

Yes, we want to plan on a workshop in October.  Will consider Nathie Marbury and Byron Bridges.  Diana North will contact them for possible topics and costs.

            Silent Auction:

Stephanie Everett suggested an “Interpreter Survival Kit” be compiled and donated from BVID for the TSID silent auction at conference.  This will be suggested to the membership.

            Officer Elections:

Because of conflicting versions of BVID Constitution and Bylaws, the board was not prepared to elect officers at this meeting.  The membership was notified that officers were to be elected at the June meeting, but this is contradictory to our Constitution and Bylaws.  Joyce Tipton was asked to send out a last-minute e-mail stating that officers would be elected tonight.  If this e-mail did get posted, then we will have elections tonight.  If not, then they will be postponed until June.  The constitution and bylaws have been corrected and copies made for each officer.

            Committees:

Nominating and Audit committees will be elected at the general meeting tonight.

            Constitutional Amendments:

The parliamentarian will prepare the board motions for the June meeting.  These motions will include the changes suggested in the Parliamentarian’s report.

            Study Groups for CEU’s:

Diana North suggested that BVID purchase additional materials to use for study groups.  Diana and Sherri will complete the necessary paperwork to submit these studies for CEU’s.  They will work on this and report back to the board and membership at the August meeting.

Motion 2001-05-01 (Sherri Roberts, Barbara Robinson) 

Move that Diana North be authorized to purchase a file box for the Vice President materials not to exceed $20.00.

Motion 2001-05-01 PASSED

 

Next Board meeting will be June 21, 2001 at 1501 Glade.

 

Meeting adjourned at 6:54 PM
