Report: I attended the June SASFAA Transition Retreat and
July SASFAA Executive Board Meeting. The
transition retreat was a learning process for me as the 2004-05 Board
transition out and the 2005-06 Board transition in. Much was accomplished at the July meeting,
including approving a balanced budget for SASFAA, reviewing the format of the
Long Range Planning Committee Retreat to take place in November and that will
focus on the “state of SASFAA,” communicating with the other eight SASFAA
states regarding things going on within their associations, and reporting to
the Board on behalf of VASFAA. I sent an
e-mail to the VASFAA membership summarizing some of the activities that occurred
during the meeting.
