Minutes:
1. Minutes from the previous meeting were approved as written.

2. Treasurer Jo Bestmann reports $3472.46 is the treasury.

3. Irene T. had printed copies of Best Practices for Falls Reduction: A Practical Guide. This had a series of articles on falls and she passed these out to board members present.

4. Carolyn and Merry visited the Wellness Center at Good Sam and a new date was selected based on members and speakers availability, for JUNE 16, 2011, 8 A.M. TO 1630. Irene condensed the objectives down to a manageable number, and should have plenty of time to get the application done for INA and contact hour approval. Food plans will be done by Carolyn and her secretary, which will include a continental breakfast and box lunch. Merry will redo the brochure, and email it out to all board members and for Tess to post on the website for NIARN. Merry will obtain folders and pens. Diane will revise the letter to vendors and with vendors already secured, we will have to change the date. For speakers, it is asked that you e-mail your power point to Irene by June 1. Each speaker is responsible to print out copies of their power points to hand out or place into the folders.

5. Current vendors secured include Posey & ARJO.

6. Our next board meeting will be held May 6,2011 at 1330 at the Cheesecake Factory.

Respectfully submitted,

Merry Dreier
Secretary NIARN
