The April speaker has offered to return with a more detailed presentation, a session on travel, and a presentation from an Elder Care Atty are all future program options.
Redwood Caregivers sent a thank you to PSGSC for our letters of support. It appears they are no longer on the chopping block.
Joe Hootman tendered his resignation from the Board. It was accepted with words of appreciation and thanks for his service.
"Practical Ploys": Joe said the brochure "Practical Ploys" was ready for reprint, although he had not gotten a quote for printing. Davis moved to provide an appropriate dedication to Joe Hootman and Phil Croel for their efforts. George Irizary will write the dedication. After discussion, it was determined to keep the document informal amongst PSGSC members (no copyright). Board approved printing of 20 copies (10 library and 10 extra). George will get copies printed (2x sided and bound). Dana May moved to approve up to $225 for printing. David seconded and Board approved. Kathy was authorized to approve final amount.
Brochures – Request that we keep an eye on where we put the brochures to ensure there are sufficient copies.
There being no other business the meeting was adjourned at 11:40.
