The following is the business arising from the September 12, 2000 Minutes:

  1. Reported Branch meeting in Medicin Hat on September 21, 2000. APEGGA is asking Grande Prairie branch to have an article with 200 words to be submitted on February 15, 2001 for publishing in the March edition of the PEGG.
All branches were asked to submit budgets on time in the future since this years was late. Cheri pointed out at the meeting that the Grande Prairie branch budget was late due to the fact that we were in the process of finding a member to be Treasurer.
