We had approximately 140 registered at the winter conference – exact numbers to be reported at a later date.

 

OCSS Constitution is online at our website.

 

Brett suggested we look at conferencing and see what we want to accomplish with our conferences.  He also suggested that we have committee meetings at our scheduled board meetings.  We would meet as a whole group at first, then break out for approx. 45 minutes for committee meetings – then come back together as a whole and have each committee report.  This would allow the committees to work on details and the board would serve as the oversight.  We should close our meetings by eating!!!!!!

 

March meeting – Brett would like to formalize objectives for conferencing and also look at when the fall conference might be scheduled.

 

The Board gave a special thank you to Julie Guild for spending the better part of the last 2 years as our President!

 

Meeting adjourned.
