Subject: [AISdiscuss] Silver Medal for BIS
AIS Board members:
(Although I strongly believe that motions SHOULD be made on AISconfer, I'm
submitting this motion on AISdiscuss as is currently the policy. Please
support my first motion to change this.)
I'm making the following motion identified by the AIS President and if
some
else gets this motion in first, I'll second it.
"Each year, upon notification to the Secretary of The American Iris
Society
by the British Iris Society (BIS), The American Iris Society will award an
Adult Silver Medal (Exhibition) to the exhibitor at the spring BIS show
exhibiting the best-of-show collection of one-to-many bloom stalks made up
only of North American Irises. The BIS will specify the conditions of the
award (i.e., the number of bloom stalks to be exhibited in the
collection).
The medal will be engraved by AIS with the name of the exhibitor and the
year of the award."
Cheers Brad Kasperek

Subject: [AISdiscuss] Motion to use AIS confer for the making and
seconding
of motions
AIS Board Members,
I move that all electronic motions be made on AIS confer and after they
are
seconded they be placed on AIS discuss for 10 days prior to moving them to
AISvote.
The current use of AISdiscuss to make motions is the opposite of the way
we
conduct AIS Board business. In Board meeting a voting member of the AIS
Board makes a motion and another Board member seconds it before opening
the
motion up to public discussion.
The electronic process should be the same process as the way we conduct
business in our Board meetings. AISconfer is the correct discussion level
for the making and seconding of motions.
All the best,
Brad Kasperek

Thank you so much, Jill, for providing info that will keep AIS Board
members
informed and reasonably comfortable about AIS finances during this
"wobbly"
period.
Cheers!

Hi All,
Just a quick note to let you know that with the current wobbles in the
US
banking system, all of the AIS investments are safe.
Many of you saw on the news that INDYMAC Bank, headquartered in
Pasadena,
CA, was closed by the Federal Reserve on Friday July 11, 2008.
The AIS Treasury holds NO certificates of deposits or other bank
accounts
with INDYMAC. In addition, all of the CDs that AIS money is invested in
are
all under the $100,000 FDIC insurance limit.
If you have any further questions, let me know...
Thanks,
Jill Bonino
Treasurer
