President reviewed issues relating to membership dues. As the annual dues stay at IAMA central we might need to have our own chapter dues separately. Details will be discussed further
We encourage more participation. Thanking all members that continue supporting IAMA. IAMA is growing and more young bright people are involved that will carry the society in this country for ever.
Plan to have a joint meeting every other month as a major representative . Discussions were done to obtain New York tax exempt number. The iama new york chapter was registered but we are still waiting for the number. Other chapters also have been in the process of obtaining their number. We will discuss with Dr Afshari about this
Dr Iryami said that it would be helpful to pursue this.
Plan to collectively organize a fundraising event. Different dates were suggested. Dr Zohreh Saadabadi will be giving a report for our next meeting
Website maintenance now being taken care of by Dr AmirFarbod Yazdanyar. We now can use our user name and pass word. And the New York chapter section is up and running and we are able to post everything, including our minutes and medical info.
The minutes will be posted on the website regularly from now on. Dr Yazdanyar was also asked to try and help with the New Jersey chapter website set up and maintenance. IAMA Connecticut chapter will also be joining our joint meetings as well.
Dr Shahidee said its important to get ready for IAMA annual meeting .The registration and meeting cost had been negotiated for a very reasonable rate.
IAMA annual meeting in TEXAS is held on memorial weekend and the registration deadline has been extended through MAY 20!!!!!
So we encourage all to register for the discounted rates at this time as much time is not left. TEXAS has arranged multiple educational and entertaining programs including a visit to the NASA center.
Bam pictures will be shown at the meeting and also the progression of the center will be discussed in details. Meeting was adjourned and plan for next meeting will be after the annual meeting in TEXAS. The date will be posted on the website.
