Another interesting and VERY educational meeting yesterday. Unfortunately we had no manual presentations. Instead we filled the time with an extended Business Meeting.
How boring you say. I say "No Way!"
This wasn't your typical "Business Meeting". Sure, brief reports were given and there was a short review of the past Executive meeting but the fun and excitement started when we tried to remove a motion from the table.
Well it turns out the minutes from the previous meeting did not exactly say that the motion in question was ever placed on the table. Hmmm, if it isn't on the table, how can we remove it? Let the learning begin....
If you are not sure what I am talking about, stop in at our next club meeting when we are conducting business. You are sure to learn something and have a giggle or two while we conduct our "Monkey Business".
The bottom line, we dealt with the outstanding motion that was left over from the previous meeting and attempted to change it with another amendment. The orders of the day were called and I am not sure if the amendment passed or not. All I know is that I may be on the hook to provide a non-water beverage for our next meeting from the vendor outside our meeting room.
Do I hear Double-Double?
I hope nothing falls off the table till next week.
