Committee Reports
Admin (Lianne) – Admin (Lianne) – We established a technology sub-committee to evaluate/implement online registration. This will need to be incorporated with our website and include a database (may not use current database). Marie L and Marie W have been included, and progress is being made, but it probably will not be ready in time for our September registration launch (may be able to launch it later and offer folks the opportunity to “beta” test it this year). Lianne to check with Bebe and see if we can get wired or wireless internet connectivity for the weekend (we can provide our own wireless router if we can connect it to something). People who don’t pay online via PayPal at time of online registration will be entered into classes on “standby” status until check is received by Marie W – then she can move them to paid and fully register them for the class.
