JULY
Well, the start of another new year, I love the beginning of
the year. Working on getting everyone to pay the bonds, getting all the
auxiliaries to get out their due’s notices and all other new year stuff.
Remember if you are a new treasurer for the auxiliary or the district you need
to fill out an IRS form 8822 and send it into the appropriate mailing address. They
just want to know the new person that is taking care of the books for your
auxiliary.
I am totally sorry about my phone issue. I found out about 3
weeks ago that my landline phone wasn’t working, and Century link isn’t helping
me very much so I have a new company and I should hopefully get my new
connection by the end of the week hopefully and I can get it set up before I
leave for National. Again, I am sorry, the worst time of the year that I could
have problems with my phone.
You should have your dues notices out and should be starting
to get money back from the members, I have found that if you send out your
notices really early in July your members seem to get them in quicker. I can tell the treasurers that get them out
early because they seem to get 100% faster so, please try to get them out soon.
Please, if you haven’t gotten your audit done, please contact
me and let me know whether it will be late and the reason. I know that during
the summer people are out of town, but we need to keep up on our audits. Remember
you must have one elected trustee at the meeting.
Right now, we have 3 districts and 11 auxiliaries to get
their bond in by the deadline. I know on the paperwork it says that we have
until the end of August, but we get 5 more points for the Circle of Excellence
if we get them in by the end of July. It
only takes a short time to push those buttons and get it completed. It is something that you have to have every
year and it is good to have it done early. If you have any questions or want to
learn how to submit your bond email me at ortreasvfwa@gmail.com.
