OLD BUSINESS

Minutes from the previous meeting were read by John Lemke.

NEW BUSINESS

We want to check into Ebay: Can our chapter do a fundraiser for a scholarship? John Lemke and Elaine Molin will check with MSA headquarters to see if this is okay.

We discussed a “map of members” with photos of each member and where they are located.

Fifty-four Midwest Chapter members are attending the 2010 Conference; 11 attendees are new members. The Midwest Chapter encompasses 10 states.

We discussed having the next regional meeting at the Studebaker National Museum in South Bend, IN. Suggested dates are Aug. 14 – 16, Aug. 28 – 30, Sept. 11 – 13 or Sept. 18 – 20. John will send out an e-mail to see which weekend will work best for all. Megabus.com — for travel to South Bend from many areas — was mentioned.

We asked for suggested topics for the meeting: Social networking? How to start an e-commerce site? Gwen Benner asked for feedback on the 2011 MSA Conference in Chicago. Wendy Jacoby mentioned that with the annual MSA Conference being held in our chapter area, we will need many volunteers during the event.
