Ken,
Thanks for the warm response and the great link. I
definately will be spending some extra time checking
it out.
I agree with the idea of internships through the
National Office. I think it would be great. In fact,
we may be able to mesh the two by having interns work
as liasons between a certain non profit and a section
or region (i.e. the section 26 liason to the Nebraska
Red Cross).
Also, I come from a brand spankin' new chapter - AEM.
I'm not entirely sure how to put together such a
proposal to convention. This coming convention will
be my first. I'll talk to my section staff about this
too.
Thanks much! In LFS,
Jay Winters
