No SILG This Week

There will not be an SILG meeting on Thursday this week since it’s Thanksgiving. Enjoy your day! We’ll see you at Festival of Tree’s the following week – Shannon will be sending out the FOT Sign-Up Sheet so everyone remembers what they agreed to, even!

Note: The SILG Board Meeting on December 1 is still happening per usual.

SILG Thursday

I don’t know about you, but SILG on Thursday is a bright spot in my week, shining like a beacon! Only one more day until I get to mingle with a bright, intelligent, generous, funny and hard-working group of women for a whole hour and then return to work buoyed by our shared efforts to support our community. This week is our monthly Business Meeting. President Ashley has a full agenda, complete with numerous committee reports, announcements and action items to move forward. We start at 12:10 and wrap at 12:50, to allow for travel time – AND you can bring your lunch, or not, whatever you prefer.

NOTE: Treasurer Patty created new Parliamentary Procedure cards for us to use at Business Meetings – THANK YOU, Patty!

Committee Updates Here

Forgot what committee/s you were on for this club year? Didn’t get a directory yet? Don’t carry it with you? The solution is simple – use the SILG website!

lagrandesoroptimist.org has a complete committee list, freshly updated, in the Members Only section at the top of the page. You will need to use the club password to sign in – page 2 of your directory (no login needed). If you don’t have your directory on you, you can text me at 541-910-4318 or email me at tressaseydel@hotmail.com and I will give you the password.

Note: not every committee seemed to have a Chair, and I may not have gotten it right even if it did. Please check to see that you are listed properly as a Chair, Co-Chair or simply as committee and let me know of any corrections. You may have won a new title!
