  • The NSCNA Winter 2009 newsletter is now available online. The newsletter was given to our printer this Friday and will be printed and mailed out next week. Until then, you can read the new issue here. Some of the topics found inside: details on the Grand Opening of the new library, How to make your own wine, upcoming social events, committee volunteer opportunities, Real Estate statistics for the past year and much more. Thank you to all of the authors and advertisers. We encourage everyone to let the companies who advertise in our newsletter know that you appreciate their support of our neighborhood.


  • At the last Board meeting, Alyssa Hedge passed on a stack of old newsletter related documents. In that stack, we found three of the old newsletters we have been missing. Thank you Alyssa! We now have 41 of the 44 published newsletters and only lack 3 issues from 1996: Issue 1, Issue 3 and a few missing pages from Issue 4. If you happen to run across these old issues, or know someone who might have them, please let Chris Jones know by emailing cejones1@gmail.com or by phone at 587-5193.

  • The first board meeting for the 2009 Board of Directors was held on January 26. After reviewing photos taken by Ross Hise, everyone decided to publish a group picture for the newsletter.

    Paperwork
    Minutes from the Jan 4 meeting were approved. Copies of the October 2008 Bylaws and the January 2009 amendment were circulated for signatures. Signatures from former board members need to be tracked down. Board procedures were reviewed, including a brief overview of Roberts Rules and its modification for small meetings. Standing rules were adopted to:
    • Require a second to motions
    • Allow friendly amendments to motions
    • Draft minutes may be placed on the website.
    (more…)


  • The Board requires all meeting minutes be approved before posting them online. At the January meeting, the past three General meeting minutes were approved. I have placed them online and you can view them by clicking the Minutes tab above or clicking here.


  • Election Results

    The January 11th meeting was held this past Sunday with an excellent turnout. The Bylaws committee recommended one amendment to the Bylaws that fixes an election issue involving runoffs that was adopted by the membership. The Nominating committee presented the results of their hard work, a slate of 11 members who are interested in running for Officer and Board positions. The Election committee then took over the meeting and proceeded with the annual elections. It was a quick election, with no new nominations from the floor for any position. Each of the 11 nominated members won their Officer and Board positions by acclimation. Here are the Officer and Board members for 2009.

    President: Jeff Russell
    Vice-President: Ken Moyer
    Secretary: Claudell Migl
    Treasurer: Helene Maham
    Board Position 1: Chip Rosenthal
    Board Position 2: Cheri Hartman
    Board Position 3: Candy Ellerd
    Board Position 4: Kelly Vaccaro
    Board Position 5: Alyssa Hedge
    Board Position 6: Sandy Perkins
    Board Position 7: Lynda Oaks

    We look forward to an exciting and challenging 2009.
