A reminder that we have a board meeting Monday, March 30th, 10:30am-12, via confernce call. 605-477-2100 Pin: 240804# Let me know if you have any specific agenda items. I’ve carved out some of my Saturday for NCL work, and I’ll put together an agenda then. In the meantime, I’ve attached a proposed revision of our general policy principles that I’d like us to consider recommending to the membership. Our current set of principles are out of date (it is also attached). In addition to updating them, I tried to cut them down and make them more general and overarching, something that many members have requested for some time. Hopefully this will make them relatively easy to adopt. I would read with an eye to cutting and making more general, as opposed to trying to go into more detail. Obviously I may have missed something big but even with this revision it is maybe longer than it should be. Thanks! Jeff

I'll be out of the country next week and will have to miss the meeting, sorry. I hope everyone received my email about the NCL webinar series AND is publicizing it through your networks. Silja .

Hi, Jeff, For some reason I wrote on my calendar that our finance cmte meeting will be at 11 tomorrow. Obviously that won't work if the board mtg is 10:30-12. Could you let me know what time you have for the finance cmte, please? Maybe I'm too confused to be the finance chair!

I had the meeting at noon - I am not available at 10, so will have to miss unfortunately - I apologize, but have been updating the board on membership as things happen - will send another update by weeks end - again, sorry...
