PROGRAM - Soror Barbara McCants-Hill reported that she had attended meetings of the National Family Volunteer Day, Education Task Force, Program, Membership, Card Party, and Founders’ Day Committees.
Soror Barbara presented the proposed program for 2004. Sorors made suggestions for additions to the calendar. The additions were to nominate officers in October, present the slate in November, install officers in December, elect delegates to the regional conference in February, elect delegates to the Boule in April, have a health workshop in October, conduct MIP in September instead of October in order to have better hotel prices, have an additional fundraiser, and add the date of the Cluster meeting. The calendar will be ratified next month.
