With the new year comes some changes at the WSGA as our board meetings go. Our next meeting is scheduled for 1/15/20. We are in the process of migrating our meetings from the current IRC-style of meetings to Microsoft Teams video conference meeting. This will speed up our meetings significantly and we should get a lot more done in a smaller window of time. We are looking at using our Facebook page to stream our meetings for folks to watch and pose questions during the meeting. This is still a work in progress. For now, stay tuned on our Facebook page as well as this website for more info on attending/participating in our board meetings.
Our November business meeting will be on Wednesday November 20th at 6:30 PM in our live chat room. Access to the live chat room is via the events drop down menu on the home page of our website.
Our next WSGA Board Meeting is scheduled for Wednesday September 18th in our live chat room. Access is via the events drop down menu. The meeting starts at 6:30 PM.
During our last board meeting which was earlier this week, we voted in our new Vice President. Please join us in welcoming JTCoffree (Jessie) as the WSGA’s new VP! She is filling the position that Squirrel50 vacated the position and was voted in to fill our vacant treasurer position. We are now fully staffed and all vacant positions are filled.
