The Board decided that the November 11th meeting will be a "Sensational Salad Supper" to be held at the usual meeting place and time. Sigrid expressed concern that our current budget will cover only six DHR approved training classes.  She recommends scheduling three in the Spring and three in the Fall.  Other meeting nights may be used to schedule dinners, social get-togethers, and informal (non DHR) training that could be presented by Association members.  This will require a vote by the membership at the October meeting.  For the Pumpkin Patch field trip, one wagon is booked and the second wagon is still available.  Sigrid will cancel the second wagon after the October meeting if there is not sufficient demand. Elections for officers and chairpersons will be held at the October 14th meeting.  A budget printout for 2003 and the proposed 2004 budget will be presented at the October meeting by the treasurer. Discussion was tabled of an amendment to the Bylaws permitting reimbursement to the president of the Association for expenses incurred in attending business meetings on behalf of CPCCA, until it is determined whether grant money is available for this purpose. Respectfully submitted, Tine Warrilow, Recording Secretary
