PUTTING IT INTO PRACTICE Send all the above information through email 2 days before the meeting. Savings = $32.40 each meeting. $45.00 (last year) -12.60 (this year)= BIG SAVINGS Savings = $388.80 $32.40 (each meeting) X 12 (meetings) = HUGE SAVINGS Members have enjoyed seeing the reports early, meetings have gone faster, and the topic being discussed bring members to meetings.

PUTTING IT INTO PRACTICE Had donated 4 jump drives for the President, President-Elect, Secretary, & Treasurer. These store all records and important documents in case it is needed at a meeting. Instant Access! Treasurer will receive her own laptop. Instant Access and Less files to store! Secretary will receive her own laptop. (She is using her own laptop now.) Useful for reviewing previous minutes.

PUTTING IT INTO PRACTICE Added a Technology Committee and have technology tips every meeting. All members who have a computer are on constant contact. Pass on all information, newsletters, etc. to all members which has increased communication within the club. We now have more money for program meetings and socials. Going Green brought in 3 prospective members.
