Secretly, these signs (there were 5) were placed in members yards. After about a week, sisters secretly passed the sign on to another chapter member. We made certain that members who needed help sending the love onward could get it. At our Holiday meeting, the sister who started it all, revealed herself. ]]> 2021-05-21 16:59:06 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1548493372 peoca2021displays https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1548631880 Chapter committee meetings and officer meetings - better than conference calls and quicker than meeting in person.  Reciprocity meetings and officer training. Convention Planning Board meetings. Definitely a time saver when groups are geographically separated like Reciprocities ad Planning Boards and State committees. Doesn't replace in-person, but definitely a time saver. ]]> 2021-05-21 17:35:04 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1548631880 https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1548690337 4H girls at eh county fair]]> 2021-05-21 17:49:55 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1548690337 https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549135244 We do something similar with layers of beans and spices layered in a bag with decorative ties.  Our other big fundraiser is Make It, Bake It, Take It where we bring our contributions and have a raffle of the items.   The items range from bake goods, crafts, plants, to guided hikes-any talent we possess!]]> 2021-05-21 20:19:20 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549135244 https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549274080 2021-05-21 21:34:30 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549274080 https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549409733 Establish a solid connection within a university department and keep them in the loop, especially if their referral resulted in a winner.]]> 2021-05-21 23:22:37 UTC https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1549409733 https://padlet.com/CarolGreen/cj61ceei10b9p09u/wish/1550377149 We are an age diverse chapter that meets in the evening. Using Zoom has increased our attendance. My guess is that working sisters don't have to spend the time driving to meetings and they can be in the comfort of their home.
