MEMORIAL WREATH
Sean Habina presented the chapter wreath at
the Memorial Day ceremony and has recovered it for future use.
TREASURER'S REPORT
Treasurer Alan Beaty gave the treasurer’s
report. Alan reported that the operating
expenditures for the year to date are on track with the projected budget. The chapter has received the first quarter
reimbursement from national AFA.
Community partners
A general discussion was held on the manner
in which the chapter and national AFA track the status of chapter community
partners (CPs). The current method of
National passing community partner yearly renewals through the chapter CP VP is
inefficient and does not appear to be effective. The chapter VP will work with the chapter
senior staff to develop and forward to national suggestions on changes to the
system. OPEN ITEM
