April 2024 Chairman’s Notes
Good Tuesday all. I am calling for a regular monthly committee meeting on Monday, 8 April 2024. I apologize to the committee as a whole for the lateness of this call. I am in the middle of travel season in my work and am currently in Hawaii. I will be present and chair next Monday’s committee meeting. This month we will address these topics: election integrity, poll greeter training and re-engaging districts to appoint a magistrate. There are also many initiatives and opportunities from outside agencies that we will be discussing to empower the committee and those outside who are seeking purpose to make a difference.
