Finance Committee chair

I counsel small business owners and those wishing to start a small business. I also teach a class called Simple Steps for potential small business entrepreneurs. I have held all positions on the board: Secretary, Treasurer, Vice Chair and Chair. I am one of the volunteers who spends time with the Entrepreneurship class at Pine View High School. It's one of the real pleasures of this volunteer activity.

I am the Regent of Color Country Chapter and was installed on May 14th. I am busy planning the next three years of my administration and choosing my project. One of our first actions will be to update our bylaws from 2006. We are also continuing our endeavors to meet everyone and be friendly. Our new meeting place, the FamilySearch Library (FSL), is just wonderful. There is room for everyone to move around during the social time; the electronic systems (projector, internet access) are considerably improved; and we have storage space for our many flags and meeting paraphernalia. Being at the FSL also makes it easy for our members to work on their patriot genealogies.

I seem to be busy from dawn till dusk. Campaigning is very hard work. My schedule is always full of meetings and events related to my candidacy. As it gets closer to election day, it becomes more hectic.

I kept the financial books, paid bills, deposited funds to the account, and advised the Chair on all financial issues.

I was Deputy Director of a group of 1400 financial personnel located across the US.
