Budget passed
Discussion of the 2022-2023 SEANC Operating Budget took much of the time at this board meeting. After much debate, the board passed a budget.
Week of Service planned
The SEANC Week of Service is planned for October 10-15 and is meant to showcase the many good things our members do in their community! We ask that each member consider completing a community service project during this week, snapping a picture and sending it to the SEANC office to be included on our social media! More details of the week’s activities will be available soon.
Reports
Treasurer’s Report – Emily Jones
General Treasurer Emily Jones reported that though problems with Impexium persist, she was able provide a financial report based on extrapolated data, thanks to SRS Consulting and Brian Neesby. The report shows that income and spending are on target for this year, and no shortfall is expected.
She also announced that travel for separate committees can now be put on the same expense form. Chief Financial Officer Brenda Williams also introduced Felicia Edwards as the new senior accountant.
