Another Great ROC Meeting

This time the Star Valley Chapter hosted the ROC and as always their was a full agenda. Minutes should be availible by April first and will be posted on teh Regional Communications page.

One item of note: On a vote of 14:1 it was decided that for the next year ROC meetings would change to a new schedule of face to face meetings in the Spring and Fall with the addition of two virtual meetings using webconferencing technology in the Summer and Winter. Although this a break from our traditional three annual face to face meetings, we will net one additional meeting while saving on expenses.

Dates and locations for upcoming meetings can be found on the Regional Google Calendar

This development provides the Kuwait Chapter with representation within our region and more importantly the direct benefit of being paired with our chapter leaders to share best practices and effective ideas to serve the members in Kuwait.

Also, this action will allow all the our members to become more knowledgeable about international opportunities and needs. So we all Welcome our newest Chapter and I encourage you to check out their nice website in the right side column of this page.
