3. Dues Increase: Dues haven't been raised in a long time. This was discussed, and decided to be shelved until next year.

4. Food Drive: The food band is in serious short supply. We will be running a food drive until May 23rd. Please see your building rep to donate money. Thanks to John P. who has taken on this task again and thank you to all whom help. Nadine made the motion "to participate in a food drive" seconded by Deb.

Building concerns:

1. The district survey was on the net, so it was anonymous.

2. Staff recognition should be handled the same at all buildings.

3. Still having problems with the sub caller asking questions. You do not have to answer all the questions, just give her the information that she needs.

Next meeting June 10, 2003

Respectfully submitted,

Marilyn Shober
