<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Folks:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We had over 30 in-person attendees at the Directors of Aging Centers meeting at GSA. Our agenda was as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For the first item, we had two volunteers to assume the role of co-directors in 2024.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Volunteers, please e-mail me your assent to stand for the co-directorship positions.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We also sponsored a symposium this year pertaining to the second agenda item about leadership training that was well attended and had excellent audience participation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For item 4, we decided that we would poll the membership about switching from a listserv maintained at FSU to the GSA Connections email option. The concern was whether non-GSA members would be inconvenienced by such a move as they would
no longer be able to participate. <b>I’ve attached a poll to this email (below), so please respond soon.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We decided to form a subgroup to come up with recommendations for coordinating receptions at GSA given the potential advantages of setting timing, negotiating prices as a group.

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Among the topics mentioned in other business we discussed the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
