The meeting was called to order by President Susan Mazanec. Members present were Joanne Heitmiller, John and Marcia Boggs, Elmer and  Jo Ann Mulhausen, Ron and Barbara Epps, Becky Hodges,  Shirley Land,  Sandra Twitty, Jo Ann Weaver,  Nancy Countess, and Susan Mazanec.**

This was a social meeting, but some business was discussed.  The results of the email poll were given by Susan Mazanec.  99% of all members placed their votes by the deadline, which fell in between the Feb. and March meetings, in favor of the first Tuesday of the month being the date of the social and business meetings, and for the accompanying bylaw change to reflect this. 

Treasurer Sandra Twitty gave the treasurer's report and a dues report. 

Advertising possibilities were brought up and discussed--the idea of boosting the Association website's visibility, as well as cost-per-click advertising.  Jo Ann Weaver made a motion for Susan Mazanec to look into the potential benefits and costs of these forms of advertising (not known who seconded).  Some members felt that we needed to increase our internet exposure/search engine standing, if possible, and keep print advertising at a minimum, due to the fact that most of the members' business comes from the web.

A wonderful meal, wine and dessert were provided by the hosts, Elmer and Jo Ann Mulhausen, and enjoyed by all in attendance.

**The attendee list may not be correct, as I don't have the list that was passed around (?) and am basing this on my memory of the event, which is limited.  Please bring any corrections to my attention.
