1. 1. Past Business

• Stephanie will decide what works best for website and move forward with update

• Send Stephanie and Hannah an email if you are interested in joining Committee
• Any large changes on website will be voted on at next Executive call 9/19/17

5.2 (Hannah Martin): Pork Board Sponsorship- Given that we do not know specifics of what type of content the Pork Board wants to sponsor, could we do a pork-only CEU or, on principle, do we feel the need to seek balance?

• Getting someone from FDA for a panel could help to balance out Pork Board
• Aiming for a fall, in-person CEU event with a social component

5.3 (Carolyn Wait): Follow-up from open space discussion ideas for DCMAND

• If we want to propose a FNCE session on innovative DCMAND members, we should think about this in January/February
• Coordinating a “speed-dating” event– this would be a task for Member Relations coordinator (Laurie Hainley)

5.4 (Stephanie Johnson): CPE opportunities for the fall- which would we like to pursue, how would we like to space them out, how would we like to structure them? (Pork Board, Pentagon visit, UDC garden visit)

• UDC Garden visit should be planned while it is still growing season
• Pentagon visit (Courtney) — Possibly in late October
  • The event would be with Courtney’s contact Colonel Suarez related to how the military can be more involved in Health and Wellness
• Pork Board Event- November

5.5 (Brittany Wood): BOD/Member Feature- Any suggestions for featured members?

• Meredith will Email Brittany Wood to be the next featured BOD member
• Please send suggestions for non-board member features to potomacpost@eatrightdc.org   

5.6 (Colleen Sideck): Twitter Chat- Decide on a date and theme

• Theme will be Back to School
• Date: End of August/Beginning of September

5.7 (Stephanie Johnson): DCMAND LinkedIn- Can someone make this with DCMAND logo?

• This would be managed by social media or strategic communications
• Voted to create LinkedIn, see Motions for Approval

• Social Media Coordinator is now vacant, looking for someone to fill this position

6.2 Nominating Committee Second Seat

• Still vacant, several have shown interest, but none have actually applied yet

6.2 Sponsorship – Kris Sollid

• Goal of looking with a critical eye at what sponsorships we are already getting funding from in addition to prospective sponsors (Functional Formularies) — Sponsorship committee will look at this first and bring it to the full board in a future meeting

6.3 Treasurer’s Report (Courtney Paolicelli)

• Please look at Treasurer’s Report and let Courtney Paolicelli know if there are questions

• $750 donation on behalf of DCMAND was made to Second Century
