Minutes for October 8, 2014

   

   

Connie McNeill reported that the Finance Committee is recommending that the Association not spend the cash reserve this year as there is some concern about the long-term financial health of the organization.  Elmer Gooding noted two upcoming events at the Emeritus College, and David Scheatzle reported that video history interviews will be placed in digital archives with the ASU Library rather than on CDs.  Recent events included a well-attended meet-and-greet pizza party and the year-opening seminar.  The Travel Committee has planned several trips for the upcoming year.  Discussions included the Association’s changing role in Advocacy, re-enrollment processes for health insurance, and declining membership, which is affecting the Association’s finances.  This last issue was addressed more fully in Barry McNeill’s discussion of the Membership Survey results.  Larry Carlson was approved as a new Board member.
