April Mtg Minutes

Hi all,

Apparently there are a few people who did not know about the Associates Social Event coming up. It was mentioned at last month's meeting but I want to further clarify this and make this the official announcement.

We have an Emerging Leaders Social Event scheduled for Wednesday, April 30th from 5:30-8:30pm. The location is at Theatre on the Square. A cover charge of $5/AIA member, $10/non-AIA member will be applied at the door. There will be a cash bar (you pay for your own drinks). the event will be catered by Dean Allen. We have some people who have volunteered their time to help plan this event. The group comprise of me, Dion Serra, Marianne Wombacher, Chauncey Drinon and Hope Gordon. Anybody who would be interested in helping out or simply want to come to one of our planning meeting, you are welcome to. We're meeting this Thursday at Abellas at noon. Also, we are still in need of volunteers for the day of the event so if anyone who would like to help.

The purpose of this event is to introduce all the interns within downtown Tacoma firms. It's also a chance to get more interns from other areas like Lakewood, Puyallup, Olympia, etc. involve. Our luncheons have been great but we have so many activities going on that we could involve interns from other areas as well. Another reason for this event is to introduce the interns to the Executive Board members of this chapter. I'm pretty sure a lot of you don't know who they are. This is a chance for you to meet with them and voice your opinions, concerns, suggestions, etc.

I hope this is clear for everyone. As I've mentioned before, the images for logo design is in the "files" link to the right of the page. The link to the Google Group Website is below.
