Please inform your interested volunteers that the first meeting regarding 2008 NERLF will be held on Saturday Feb 18 at the Merrimack County Office from 10 AM -2 PM.
Some questions you might need to answer for your volunteers:
What kind of commitment is it? - at this point there is no commitment. This initial meeting is just to explore ideas about: what might we want the conference to look like?; what kind of committees do we need?; possible locations; timeline, etc.
Why are we starting so soon? One reason is that we will need to promote this at the 2006 NERLF in New Jersey because the 2007 Conference will be subject matter focused. It is also not too early to reserve a facility for a group as large as ours.
The State 4-H Office will be inviting volunteers who have attended Northeast Leader Forums in previous years. We will also be asking them to fill out a questionnaire so they may provide some input even if they are unable to attend.
Please encourage your volunteers to attend, even if they have limited time to commit. The larger and more varied the group is, the better our conference will be.
Please send name, address, email address and phone # of interested parties to Michele King. Also include a cell phone # so we may contact folks in case of a meeting cancelled due to inclement weather. Thanks in advance for your help. Michele
