Board Meeting Reminder & cetera

[Wanda Hill]

The link below won't let me access the site, so I can't modify &
reupload my file. Maybe I can't get to the site because I'm trying to
access away from home? Anyway, as for agenda items (budget), for
Employment, if Salary Survey is considered under Employment, I guess
I'd say budget for $240 (Surveymonkey?), from what I saw for numbers at
Saturday's workshop. Jobbank is customarily a no-expenditure committee,
although I think we budegeted a token $10. For income, there is usually
some from resume postings. Andy can provide that info to use for
forecasting for FY07. As in the stock market, past performance is no
indication of future performance.

Employment agenda in general--please review my yahoo file about
contractssig--merge, phase out, ... , for outreach, items I mentioned.
