May-Julie's Club- Discussion topics [Maren add to agenda]

Hello ladies, So we have been doing most awesomely this fifth year. I am loving the way Maren does the agenda. I also love how it spells out our night's menu- brilliant Maren. Now we can back track the minutes and know what foods we want in the cookbook. The cookbook I think once completed [probably a few years from now] may be an item we can sell to family and friends and actually make money that cycles back to the club. People are always asking to join or what we are reading. If we had our most awesome book I bet it's be an awesome commodity. On another note: Meriah your treasury reports have been fabulous. You make it seem so easy. You have been tenacious at getting people to pay up. We missed our agenda run down this past month. So we should talk about how to spend our dues. Some topics to discuss as follows: ~Cookbook how to start compiling-where to start; ~DUES- How to spend; ~New shirts ~New stickers/magnets for our cars (Tristana is the last woman standing with our original) ~New Logo?- have we decided this yet?? ~Lastly off the top of my head; Meriah mentioned me not having anything to do so we should discuss this. Last meeting we didn't go by our new protocol. But in the past meetings since the change; I run the agenda, keep order, make sure I get the minutes from Maren. Post on site, I also pose questions for the discussions, email everyone, check in with Tristana to make sure the main person is communicating the menu, make sure mid month is happening, Check in with everyone to make sure we are reading-try to be as encouraging as I sometimes need as well. I make sure old unresolved topics resurface and get resolution. So much of what I do now is what I always did but now its not on top of minutes, menus,mid months, organizing, etc..It's just all behind the scenes and it's all about motivation and keeping things notified and on plan and not put off to the side and forgotten. Our passion is our club's lifeline. So Maren please add this blurb to the agenda. ~Oh yeah MAREN- I love the new Ipad way of doing the agenda; saves paper and its easy to quickly update and email for posting. Plus I was just thinking- you could copy and paste this post from our site and paste it into your note pad and then bam agenda automatically has the blurb. I think this could really be an awesome way to jump into the computerized age. Thought I'd share that idea. PS: Meriah are you getting these??? let me know if you aren't
