Help Wanted
Vice
President
Presently
the DVOS is in need of a person or
group of people to
act as club Vice President: duties are to arrange
speakers and raffle tables for next year, 2005.
Without speakers there will be no activity at
club meetings except the Show and Tell Table and
refreshments. There
will be no Raffle Table.
At
President Dennis Olivas’ request outgoing VP Kathy
Barrett arranged 5 speakers and 2 raffle tables for next
year. It
will fall to someone else to keep in contact with these
speakers, confirming their commitment, getting plants
for raffle table and taking the speaker to Dinner.
Feel free to cancel these speakers if you want.
Actually if no one wants to take on the
responsibility of taking the speaker to dinner that
social nicety can be dropped.
Other societies don’t take the speaker to
dinner, so why should we? [shrug]
You
can find speakers by asking Dennis Olivas, Francisco
Baptista or Rob Terry who they have liked to hear in the
past, calling that person up, and seeing if they can
talk. Additionally there is a group of VPs that stay in
contact by email. You
can find out who they have booked and call their
speakers up to see if they want to come to talk to the
DVOS too.
You
have to attend Board meetings the 3rd
Thursday of the month.
You
have to arrange Raffle Table Plants. Usually the speaker
provides the raffle table plants but in cases where they
can’t you only have to ask Dennis, Fordyce or Fred and
Francisco who you may be able to get plants from.
You usually get this info at the Board meeting.
You
have to tell the newsletter editor and the webmaster who
the speaker is in time for them to put it in the
newsletter, etc. Speakers
usually provide the biography that appears in the
newsletter.
Kathy
will provide you with correspondence and contact numbers
for the speakers she has arranged to date.
Yes.
We are in dire need.
