Upstate Mothers of Multiples Club August 2008 Meeting

On Thursday night, August 21st, I arrived at the YWCA around 7:00 pm for our monthly meeting of the multiples club. When I arrived, a few others were already there, like Leah Howard and Amy Dishner. Others were soon to follow and before long we had a great crowd. We started the meeting with the normal club business, talked about the upcoming consignment sale, and then took a vote on officially changing our name from the Greenville Mothers of Multiples Club to the Upstate Mothers of Multiples Club. We have been talking about this for a little while now and since we have so many members from various areas in the Upstate, we thought it was a great idea. Once the vote passes, the floor was officially handed off to Nathalie Smith, who did the presentation for "Member of the Year". She read all of the nominations and had those people stand up. For the final one, she announced the "Mother of the Year" was Jenn Osborne who was nominated by several new members and moms in need that she had helped. All the nominees were presented with a small gift card and then Jenn received a $100 gift card. She was very well deserving!!!


After Mom of the Year stuff was done, Lisa officially handed the presidency and the floor over to Leah. Leah then went on to present Lisa with a gift card to thank her for her work as president. After that, we moved on to the changing over board positions.

First we started with the outgoing board promising to support the new board and then we went on to the new board promising to server the club in their new position. I guess since I went from treasurer, to treasurer, I need to support myself =)




After the new board was installed, we all chatted for a little while and then headed downtown to Wild Wings for the after the meeting meeting.
