ORGANIZATION
Area VI
I wanted to take a moment to give Area VI a quick update on
EANGUS' Financials, Area VI Midwinter and Membership.
First off, as some of you may have heard during the OCT Membership
Meeting/Executive Board Meeting, members of the Finance Committee identified
some concerns with EANGUS' financials. The major concern was the
vacancy of a certified accountant handling our finances. We as an
Executive Council voted to budget enough money next year to hire an
accountant. We also voted to approve a budget that is significantly smaller
than this years budget. All this was recommended by the Finance
Committee and was done to ensure we stayed within budget and didn't exceed
moneys coming in.
The 2009 Midwinter Caucus is coming up 23-25 JAN 2009 at the Riviera Hotel
and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. There will be an informal social on
Friday night with the meeting taking place starting at 8am on the 24TH and
the 25TH is a travel day. Please see the attached registration form
and distribute to your members.
I've also attached November's membership Worksheet, please take a moment to
look at it. I know there have been some discrepancies between what
states are showing and what national has. If you are having these
issues please let me know so we can try and reconcile this. There was
discussion in the Executive Council Meeting concerning making all
memberships annual and expiring 31 DEC for better tracking. The possibility
of raising membership dues was also discussed. No decisions were made
on this and I'd like to get everyone's thoughts on this at the Mid Winter.
I will have more information on the Mid Winter as it comes in. Thanks
for all the hard work you do and look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas.
