Minutes for the October 11 meeting of the Board for LAWIS, NMNWSE-Northern Chapter. The meeting was held at Deborah Kubicek's house. Attendees were Denise George, Karen Schultz Paige, Trish Wright, Ginger Young, Deborah Kubicek. This was not a large enough number of new Board members to constitute a quorum and therefore no official votes were conducted. Because a quorum was not present, it was impossible to vote on positions for next year. Therefore, we agreed to conduct an electronic vote for those positions requiring a vote including President, Vice-President, Treasurer, and Secretary. We did recommend the following people for those positions, in order: Karen Schultz Paige, Wendee Brunish, Trish Wright, Ginger Young. An electronic vote was conducted by Karen and seven members voted for the recommended slate. Karen carried this list of new positions to the State Annual Meeting as our chapter's representative. The other positions will be determined at the next meeting of the Board, to take place November 8. The outstanding positions to be filled include State liaison, Public Relations, EYH chair, and Newsletter. All agreed that State liaison could be a rotating position so that one person isn't required to travel excessively. We decided that a newsletter should be sent out soon, probably in November, to update the membership on the new board and the Annual Meeting and future activities for 1996. Karen agreed to take four boxes of archival information and deliver them to the State Archivist. This is dede Collins for 1996 and she received the boxes willingly.
