<http://www.m-a-t-a.org/images/Logo.jpg> Date: 15 December, 2011 Topic: Special Business Meeting and Election of Board Members Place: TBD We tried to have our annual business meeting and election of new board members in November but could not hold elections due to low turnout. All Board positions require new people. 80% of the current Board of Directors position holders will no longer be able to participate and need to transfer functions to other members. One suggestion was to have the December meeting at a different location and at a different time. Please submit your recommendations for location and time to WEBMASTER@xxxxxxxxxxx before 1 December so there is time to get a consensus and make any reservations/arrangements. This will include a review of the financial statements, summarization of MATA activities, nominations for all board positions, and elections of new board officers. Please see the current list of Board of Directors for positions as all are open for nomination. Please RSVP at the <http://www.m-a-t-a.org/reserve0118.htm> online registration form to help ensure we have adequate accommodations. Registration begins at 11:30 AM with lunch being served at noon. Reservations must be made prior to 5:00 PM, the Monday prior to the meeting. There will be a $40 charge for each visitor or guest which can be applied towards prorated membership. * <http://www.m-a-t-a.org/reserve0118.htm> On-line reservation form _____ If you have a topic you would like to here about or present please let us know. <mailto:2mata@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2mata@xxxxxxxxxxx
