President's Message

Recently the annual meeting with the Joint State Affiliates and DLI took place in Maryland. Most of you know that the local associations like RMFA and DLI renew their affiliation contract each year. The purpose of the annual JSA/DLI meeting is to discus pertinent issues related to the various associations and to discuss any changes to the contract that are felt to be necessary.

This year’s meeting varied a little bit from past meetings in that a facilitator was hired to guide the group through the process. The result of the meeting is usually a completed contract for the various JSA boards to approve. This year the result of the meeting was a laundry list of suggestions for the DLI board to consider in the new contract. A committee was formed to look at these suggestions and report back to the DLI board. The board will then send out the updated draft to the JSAs for approval. Even though we did not leave Maryland with an updated contract the meeting was still very productive.

The result of gatherings like this is often the sharing of ideas, and there was a lot of valuable information received by all parties. Many of these ideas relate to services and programs that we can provide to our members. One of these programs is discounted web site construction and hosting. We have already spoken with Directory Networks, the company that manages the RMFA web site, and they have agreed to run a discounted package for RMFA members.

The RMFA board will also be getting together soon to discuss the 2010 program schedule. If you have any suggestions or comments for the board please give us a call. If you would like to volunteer or nominate someone to serve on the board we are always looking for people with ideas.
