Hi LTCA Folks,<span> </span></p>

I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the beautiful weather. I know there are a lot of changes going on at schools across the state – and many of us our engaged in challenging conversations about budget reductions.<span> </span></p>

So, I think it is worthwhile to organize an LTCA meeting for this summer. We had originally scheduled the meeting for a Friday, but we understand some folks are being furloughed on Fridays. So I’ve created a<span> </span><a href="https://doodle.com/poll/edtzd3ezqf9pv7u7" style="color:rgb(149,79,114); text-decoration:underline">Doodle
Poll</a><span> </span>to reschedule our meeting. This poll only asks for day availability, not time. I imagine we will do a morning 9 am – 12 pm meeting like we did in spring. Please respond by the end of the week so we can get this on our calendars.<span> </span></p>

Also, if you have any topics that you want us to cover – or a presentation you would like to make – let me know.<span> </span></p>

Finally, we need to conduct our board elections this summer. According to our<a href="https://canvas.northseattle.edu/courses/1777046" style="color:rgb(149,79,114); text-decoration:underline"><span> </span>bylaws</a>, we need to elect a chair, co-chair, secretary,
and treasurer.<span> </span></p>

I think the best way to go about this is to <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScgT5Bq6ligasuYI7dRH3bVws36pHq51OiFmf4GBY5s6JsI9A/viewform?usp=sf_link" title="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScgT5Bq6ligasuYI7dRH3bVws36pHq51OiFmf4GBY5s6JsI9A/viewform?usp=sf_link">
submit names to this form for the people you would like to nominate</a><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: medium; background: var(--white);"><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScgT5Bq6ligasuYI7dRH3bVws36pHq51OiFmf4GBY5s6JsI9A/viewform?usp=sf_link"> you
would like to nominate</a> for these positions. You can also nominate yourself – for multiple positions as well. Let’s set a deadline for Friday, July 17 to submit nominees for these positions. Then, we will create a poll that will run from July 18 – July
24 so everyone can vote on the nominees. That way we will have a board by our summer meeting.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> </span></p>

I know this is probably another thing on your plate, but I think it’s important to get done this summer so we can get off to a good start next year – which I’m sure will be a challenging one.<span> </span></p>
