These items are: * Proposal made for OLAC to sponsor lunch for the October 10th Decentralized Training at the University of Oklahoma * Nominations of OLAC officers for the 08/09 term * OLAC membership dues Lunch Sponsorship A proposal was made at the last meeting for OLAC to sponsor lunch at the upcoming decentralized training. So that arrangements can begin, this proposal is being made to the OLAC members with the expectation that anyone "opposing" this recommendation respond to Rick Edington by Friday, September 12th. If no opposing e-mails are received, the motion will carry forward as approved and OLAC will sponsor the lunch. Nominations for OLAC Officers Due to some unfortunate and unexpected changes in the lending industry, we need to select officers for the term of 7/1/08 to 6/30/09. A few nominations have already been made and accepted, but we need to present this to the entire membership to capture any other nominations for these positions. Once all nominations are received and accepted, we will send the complete ballot out for voting. * President (nominated: Kay Brezny, OSLA) * President Elect (no nominations) * Treasurer (nominated: Diane Hogue, Tinker Federal CU) * Secretary (nominated: Helen Zais, Allegiance CU) Please send any nominations (name and nominated position) to Rick Edington, OGSLP. OLAC Membership Dues If you have not paid your yearly dues, please contact Diane Hogue (acting treasurer in the absence of Steve Adamo) for payment instructions. If you aren't sure whether or not you owe dues at this time, Diane can help. If you are interested in becoming an OLAC member you may contact Rick Edington or Penny Gandy for more information.
