The Executive Board meeting started at 1200 on 7 May 2014.

1. Update on the RPDI-RPDI went extremely well with lots of great comments/feedback from attending members. Geico and Phoenix would like to set up tables @ the luncheons in the future. According to Patty Tharp a total of $300 was spent on snacks/refreshments which worked out to be approximately $1.50 per person. CDR Thomas brought up discussion regarding an annual RPDI and venue options. Since RPDI was so successful, recommendation was to continue annual for CPE credits for membership. Possible expansion and increase cost for additional scholarship money in future. More discussion to follow.

2. Recommendation for Executive Committee mementoes at $250. Approved.

3. Awards Committee Update-Certificates, coins, water bottles to be given in a goody bag. Already in budget request. Judy Aptaker will finalize with Col Goff on PACAF team award winners. Two teams winners, one from Army and one from Air Force. Col Minkin, Essay winner, Regina Torosian, ASMC Aloha Chapter Member of the Year, Lt Col Sheppard, Budget Award Winners.

4. Scholarship Committee: Big check was found and will work logistics for big check delivery, mementos and certificates for awards/scholarship luncheon. Dr. Hornsby will not be able to be our luncheon speaker. Backup is Ms Nicole Combs, University of Phoenix Department Chair. She will speak about Importance of Education in the Work Place. Has a 30 minute time slot.

5. Ms. Patsy Provines-Will represent ASMC Aloha Chapter at the PDI in Seattle. Regina gathered a list of attendees from various service agencies with contact information to ensure if folks need help they have lifeline.

8. Elections in June-Discussion of the current committee renewing for next year and many volunteered to continue. Need a few slots filled for Committee Chair positions. VP’s will work on gathering people for those positions. Discussion regarding some Exe positions needing assistants due to huge workload. We would like to get extra members also on the committees with one member for each service agency. Makes it easier to get info out to member and non-members. Spread the workload to more volunteers.

9. June Luncheon-Speaker LCDR Thomas has a good briefing on TSP that he gives to military members and can change to fit both military and civilian members. SMSgt Seiler to set up venue at JBPHH.
