TASTING WITH TIFF

Hello again, my lovelies! \(≧▽≦)/

School is finally out, sum-

mer is officially in full swing,

and service is filling the air!!

Take advantage of all your

free time this summer to

maximize service events

and fundraisers! Keep that

membership involvement

up so you can hit the ground running

once school starts again.

READ ALL THE WAY UNTIL THE END FOR A

GLANCE INTO THE LIFE OF A DISTRICT

BOARD MEMBER xDD

Yours in service,

Tiffany Nguyen 2015-2016 Cal-Nev-Ha KIWIN’S District Secretary

RECORDING TIPS MEETING MINUTES

Notes are always easier to summarize than ex-

pand upon after the meeting!!

Use the same formatting for all your notes.

It all comes down to your personal style. Do

what’s easiest and natural for you!

Take notes on your cell phone through Google

Docs or Evernote for an easy transfer to a com-

puter!

What should you include in the minutes? Type of meeting (club, board, etc.)

Location and date

Time meeting was called to order / adjourned

Attendance of who is present /absent

Actions taken, announcements, decisions made

Send these notes to your executive board!

7

RECORDING TIPS HOUR LOGS

Spreadsheets will literally become your best

friend. Whether you use Excel Spreadsheets or

Google Sheets, teaming up with Google Drive

will help you live your life peacefully.

There are many helpful functions and formulas,

learn them and use them!! (LIKE =SUM(A3:A))

DO NOT USE THE SERVICE RECORD ATTACHED TO

THE MRF, MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER AND CREATE

A SEPARATE SPREADSHEET.

This is also up to your personal style, but some

major things to include are:

Name, grade, optional ID number

Event name AND date

Easy way to keep track of hours is through sign

up / sign in sheets!!

8

CORRESPONDING TIPS

Surprise, corresponding secretaries use the

same apps!!

Take notes on who, what, where, when, and

why events and fundraisers occur. These will

be helpful for your MRFs!

Since these notes are more informal, feel free

to spice it up as much as you’d like xD

I’ve mentioned this before, but tell yourself

they’re due on the last day of the month!

Make your life easier and stress-free!!

Check out the resources on page 11 for

more in-depth tutorials and walkthroughs.

MONTHLY REPORT FORM

9

CORRESPONDING TIPS

YOU GET AN APP, YOU GET AN APP, EVERY-

ONE GETS AN APP!!! (even though they’re

the same ones!!)

When membership season comes and you

have to pay the dues, you will be submitting

every member’s information into the Mem-

bership Update Center alongside your Treas-

urer.

Have members turn in an “application”

that includes their name, grade / gradua-

tion year, email, and gender.

Input this information into a spreadsheet.

The name and grade columns may be

copied and pasted to create an hour log.

Kathy and I will go into more detail soon.
