September 2003 Women's Bar Association Board of Directors Meeting Minutes, 2003 [i] (September 16, 2003)

handle is hein.peggy/wbabrmis0009 and id is 1 raw text is: WOMEN'S BAR ASSOCIATION OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING September 16, 2003 MINUTES The meeting was called to order by the President at approximately 6:45 p.m. at the offices of Koonz, McKenney, Johnson, DePaolis & Lightfoot. In attendance were Paulette Chapman (President), Lisa Dunner (Treasurer), Barbara Burr (Treasurer-Elect), Regina DeMeo (Secretary), Jennifer Duane (Board Member), Evangeline Paschal (Board Member), Ellen Jakovic (Past-President), Heidi Sorenson (WBAF Board Member) and Martha Lockwood (Executive Director). I. Fall Kickoff: A. Important Details: Paulette reported that thus far the WBA has received 312 rsvps for the event this Thursday. Honored guests will have yellow badges. Board members should be meters and greeters of the honored guests and other attendees. An email will be sent to the co-chairs and Board members asking that they arrive between 5 and 5:30p.m., so there is ample time before the guests start arriving at 6p.m. We have 12 sponsors at $500. Angela Fisher-Jaffe was kind enough to make the calls and secure these sponsors. The WBAF gave us a grant of $5,000. Jenner & Block were able to obtain the venue for us. Reliable Source is providing the posters, etc. The timeline for speeches will be between 6:45 and 7:15p.m. Membership brochures will be available. Todd Allen Printers has produced 2,500. B. Membership Sale: Discounts will be offered on membership prices that night. The Board unanimously voted to be consistent with last year's discounts, which were also offered at the Young Lawyer's event in July 2003. C. Contingency Plan: Due to the possible complications with transportation, etc. as a result of Hurricane Isabel, the Board discussed a contingency plan. It was agreed that the deadline for canceling will be Thursday, September 17 at noon. If we cancel Thursday, we may lose part of our deposit with Ridgewell's Catering for food that is lost. We believe the most we would lose is approximately $2,500. Emails will be sent to all members, including co-chairs and Board members, as well as everyone who has sent an rsvp. In addition, Paulette will try to personally call all the honorees. In the event of a cancellation, the new date for the event will have to be the week of October 14 , given Judith Richard Hope's availability and our desire to avoid a conflict with the events for the National Association of Women Judges.
