20 July
To: FNPS Board of Directors
From: Don Spence, Vice President of Administration
As of 17 July, all contractor invoices that were submitted were approved for payment.
I have been rewriting and rewording the contacts we will let on 1 Jan 2018. The changes that are being suggested were based on the Excom meeting in June of 2017.
I had a conversation with Cammie about her role so that our next contract meets her and our needs. If the BOD chooses to move forward with hiring an Executive Director we will need to modify our publications to represent a new mailbox, would we make the ED the registered agent, phone number for the ED, and general inquiries will need go to the ED.
Juliet’s contact – I have not spoken to her about her contract yet.
Andy Taylor – I have asked him for more information on his successes as the Development Director, however, he has not responded yet.
Social Media – Devon said she would talk to Andy about picking up the Social Media responsibilities through the end of 2017. I have not heard whether or not he will do that.
Sue Mullins – I have made some inquiries into her contract, but I have nothing to report at the moment.
Palmetto and Sabal Minor contracts will remain the same.
I have been coordinating with Marlene Rodak on the contact for the 2018 conference at the Miccosukee Resort and Casino. Based on Marlene’s comments, and coordination with Juliet, most aspects of the contract are being worked out.
As of 18 July I do not have a date that we expect to finalize the agreement. Food for Vegans, Vegetarians, and those with gluten or other food allergies, have not been addressed by the Casino.
