first meeting - recap

Excellent first meeting. The good ideas were really flowing. Our main topic or good idea that we discussed was the Good Idea Society itself. The one directive that exisits is the idea that the Society will be paramount to all other good ideas. We must make sure we are always fostering a forum for the Good Idea Society to evolve and flourish. We also decided on a few guidelines for the Society...
1. GUIDELINES - we will not make rules unless we need them. We discussed a few good guidelines, but we will not implement a guideline unless it is needed.
2. MEMBERSHIP - to start, there will be a $20 membership fee for the first six months. New members can join by being invited by a current member. A new person can attend two meetings before they have to join.
3. HOW THE MEETINGS WILL RUN - to start we will have 1.5 hour meetings starting at 7:30pm. We will recap the last meeting, discuss new ideas, then move onto the "idea(s) of the week". No cell phones during the meeting.
4. OFFICERS - at our next meeting we will nominate/volunteer/elect a few officers. 3 people on an agenda committee, 1 treasurer, 1 secretary/reporter.
