NFBO Rose City Chapter

Minutes July 17, 2021

 

                Kirk called the meeting to order at 10:30 Am with the following members attending: Kirk & Cherri Wagner, Ryan McBee, Jerry Hathaway, Joyce Green, and Carolyn Brock. Kirk asked the members to talk about their most memorable experience at a national convention. Joyce Green made a motion to approve the minutes from our June chapter meeting with Carolyn seconding the motion and the motion was passed by the members attending the meeting. Joyce Green gave the Treasurer’s report with a beginning balance of $910.00 and a ending balance of $898.00. Joyce explained how to make a check out to the chapter for members who want to send a check to pay for dues or other donations with the pay to line being made out Rose city Chapter NFBO and putting in the memo line what the check is for as dues or other donation. Jerry Hathaway made a motion to have the Treasurer’s approved as read with Carolyn seconding the motion and the motion was passed by the members attending the meeting. Since the Macular Degenerate Expo will not be held this year we then had a discussion about ideas for Meet the Blind Month in October. One idea for Meet the Blind Month we discussed looking into using the radio public service announcements produced by NFB. Kirk suggested as a possible fun raiser by doing a silent auction online that he had heard about and thought might be something the chapter can do for a fund raiser. We then had a discussion about other fund raising ideas. Kirk will look more into the online silent auction and ask the chapter president listserve what items did well and what items did not do well on the silent auctions that was done in their chapters and let us know at our next meeting. Kirk said that he will ask Mary Ann Mendez if she still plan to work on Newsline or if we need to get somebody else to pursue in working on getting Newsline awareness improve in Oregon. Kirk asked members to share their experiences about the virtual National convention that members attended earlier this month. Kirk adjourned the meeting at 11:35 AM.
