PetesFolly Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 This is one of the most important meetings that we have as our committee chairs, secretary, and treasurer are up for election. Please keep in mind that this club only works if people volunteer. If you have not volunteered yet, please give this some serious consideration. I can't tell you how much this club has meant to me in regards to my own growth in the hobby through the education that is offered and also the great friendships I have made via the social side of the club at monthly meetings over the past 9 years. Without people volunteering for committee chairs, officer positions, and staff positions, this club will not be able to continue to exist. As many of you are already aware, many clubs have already shut down during and since COVID. I would be extremely disappointed to see our club cease to exist as well. I have so many great memories of the education topics that have been provided, social interactions at meetings, and trips...locally and nationally. We have a lot on the plate for next year such as the FRAG Swap, monthly meeting calendar, education topics for the monthly meetings, etc. Personally, I will continue to support the club's committees and hosting the new member meeting. Mike's oldest son, Michael, is getting married next Saturday so I will not be able to make the meeting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike762 Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 I’ll be there! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoralBeauty28 Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 I will not be there as I have a craft fair Saturday, but Alan may. But as Bob said we need to continue with the growth of the club and without everyone we wouldn't have INDMAS. Definitely made many friends on a hobby that my husband has gotten into. So please help INDMAS continue going by volunteering for these positions! We are definitely a one of kind and the best club out there 😉 I vote for Kyle Miller as membership again! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been Mired Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 Hello, I plan on being at the meeting tomorrow. I hope to help make a smooth transition to a new Treasurer this year and see other people step up in person, if not here on the thread tonight yet. 🙃 Don't be afraid, @ddeurloo is a great president to work with, and INDMAS is a very simple financial organization!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
