Words from the Prez, November 2009

It is hard to believe we are already past Fall Break and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  Where has the first term gone? Soon we will be asking for volunteers to stand out in the cold and ring the bell. Please watch for the notices and sign up to help the BEA support the Salvation Army.

Congratulations go to Debra Ary!  She was the first winner of our newest BEA Line addition. Each month a different member’s name will be drawn and then hidden in one of the BEA Line articles.  Look for your name, it may be the one hidden in this issue!  We would like to send out a big thank you to our local Rib Crib restaurant.  They have donated four $15 gift certificates for prizes.  Enjoy your BBQ Debra!

The Member’s Rights meeting held in October was a big success.  Paul Gayowski from the OEA was our speaker.  He provided insight on member’s rights and answered a lot of questions from the floor. It was a very interesting meeting and a lot of good information was shared.  We are planning on having Paul come again next semester.

Don’t forget to be watching the BEA website.  It is a great way to stay updated on current events and pickup good information.

Have a happy Thanksgiving,

Stacy
