Kris Hudspeth asked the board to go to their Pods and remind them that since the Great Pepper’s meeting will be held out of Texas, for the first time in a long time, that they should start fund raising now. It is a rules change year and we will have director elections. It is their chance to put their mark on the organization through the election of directors and rule changes. We need to make sure that we have 100% attendance from every pod and we don’t want the costs to come as a surprise. Nothing in the rules for having your pod as the charity three or four times a year. The airfare will be between 3 and 5 hundred plus hotel expenses. A rough estimate is about $1,000 in expenses. Talk to them about doubling up in hotel rooms to save costs. Kris Hudspeth made a motion to approve the special award at TICC that ties into the year of the pod, seconded by Mary Ellen Gillen. Motion passed: Unanimous The summer board meeting will be in Houston in July. The date will be determined next month. It will be one day only, with the workshop in the morning and the meeting in the afternoon. Don Hoy made a motion to adjourn, seconded by Mary Ellen Gillen. Motion passed: Unanimous
