The Sage Society
October Newsletter
· Our
next Sage Society meeting is on Tuesday,
October 9, 2018 at 4:00 in Room 124 of the
Sandstone Building (the OLLI Room) at USCB.
Come early to socialize!
· Nimmie
Huber will give her presentation on Washington, DC – Off the Beaten Path!
· Since
we had to cancel our meeting courtesy of Hurricane/Tropical Storm Florence, our
presentation schedule has been slightly adjusted. Carla Marsh will present in
November and Carol Lauvray will be rescheduled.
· Since
our nominating process for new officers was interrupted, we had
to “monitor and adjust” if we wanted to follow
the schedule that is stated in the by-laws.
Melba Thomas, the Member-at-Large, is head of
the Nominating Committee. She secured several volunteers to be on her committee
and they are in the process of recruiting a new President, Sec/Treas/Historian,
and a Member-at-Large. They will report on the slate of officers at our
meeting.
· Everyone:
Please give Geni Flowers Bouquet, Secretary, names of potential new members at
the November meeting. Include a brief biographical paragraph. We will accept
nominations (and brief biographies) until Dec. 29.
We
do not meet in December, so please get your nominating information in ASAP.
1. I
will share these paragraphs before the January meeting.
2. You
are encouraged to invite your potential new members to one or two meetings.
3. Let
the Secretary and President know who you will bring as a guest. Geni will
prepare a name tag for them.
4. All
potential new members will be put on a waiting list and voted on at the annual
meeting in January. The top “vote getters” will fill the open spots. The others
will remain on the waiting list.
5. We
have 4 openings now. Filling those vacancies will bring us up to our “total” of
21 members.
· In
the September newsletter, I shared the April minutes. (We did not meet in
May. Most of you were at the BHM Tea at
Dataw.)
Please read the April Minutes and
send any corrections to Geni. We will approve the minutes before our speaker is
presented.

President,
