Report to NABO
Delegates: Buffalo 2006 |
At the last NABO meeting of delegates in San
Francisco (Feb. 2006) the following items were promised for July. Here is
their status:
 FINANCES
Since the
last meeting, I incurred the following costs on projects and am now
requesting delegate consent to be reimbursed by NABO for the following.
Since I went ahead with these projects prior to formal delegate
approval, I did so understanding that I might well have to pay for this
myself if not acceptable.
 |
Touring Photo Exhibit:
$489.06
> This entails the poster frames (for durability and transport)
that were purchased (14 large ones with multiple photos in each)
and the material for the construction of seven easels with which
to display them. |
 |
Cinema project: $129.90
> NABO was given a set of Basque films on DVDs. This
entails the purchase of a DVD player that reads European DVDs.
The aim is to make these available to NABO member clubs on a
loan basis. |
 |
Jolasa/Jokua book shipment:
$739.37
> This was not anticipated. When asked if NABO could
receive a shipment of these books (totaling 216 books) Mary and
I said yes without really realizing how expensive the shipping
would be. It comes out to $3.45 a book, but these books
are well worth it for what they can potentially convey to future
teachers. |
