1. Minutes. The minutes of the special board meeting (September 1, 2011), were accepted.
2. Election 2011. Secretary Stouffer e-mailed a draft of the election letter for Officers, Board, and Convention Delegate[s]. The election will be held October 5, with nominating petitions due September 14. The IFPTE National Convention will be July 16-19 in Las Vegas; Governor Crocker moved, Governor Reeder seconded and the motion passed unanimously that we should send 3 delegates to the convention. The election letter will include a reminder of the delegate duties and the fact that delegates must attend on their own time.
3. Amicus Brief. The deadline proved to be too tight. If opportunity arises in future, we will revisit the matter, starting with Jack Maskell.
4. Other. President R. reported on VERA/VSIP. No solid numbers of participants are known yet.
Meeting adjourned at 1:00 p.m.
