Paul reports that Myrna is having a hard time attending these meetings because of the time of day.&nbsp;&nbsp;He will check with Myrna and see if we can find a time that works better for everyone. He will send around time choices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Super Regional Conference is moving ahead, despite conflict with NPR board meeting. A preliminary feedback session and ideas about the agenda was held.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sessions themselves need to be determined. PRRO will put together an advisory group to discuss specific sessions.&nbsp;&nbsp;IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS, let Paul know.&nbsp;&nbsp;He believes that the more people involved, the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will be meetings to discuss topics and this select group from regional orgs will help to sculpt the topics, speakers, etc.&nbsp;&nbsp;Time commitment unknown at this moment. It will start in May.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Zoom meetings will be held.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Paul will participate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nico might be available.&nbsp;&nbsp;Neenah will try to do it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CPB will provide money for scholarships for the conference.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trying to keep the registration fee as low as possible.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second person half price deal is available.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no keynote speaker as of yet. Think about that.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Neenah suggests someone to talk about the importance of diversity in public radio. Someone from outside public radio.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul notes that Patricia Cervini taking over from Georgette Bronfman at Eastern Public Radio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul asks for feedback about adding a virtual element to the conference.&nbsp;&nbsp;The costs and logistics are probably prohibitive.&nbsp;&nbsp;We have talked about doing the keynote or something else as virtual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regina \u2013 no need to provide it in real time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul agrees that might be a better approach.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richard Miles took part in day one of super regional planning session. He said it was slow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul notes that there was not a lot of new thinking that came out the first day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More meetings are forthcoming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul will notify us when the May meetings are announced.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3 Floor open for discussion and consideration of other topics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>None .&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul will send out a report from the Super Regional event organizers.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul will notify us as to the May content meetings<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, he will try to move our regular meeting after conferring with Myrna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regina Dean&nbsp;&nbsp;-will try to get membership invoices out to get money flowing through the treasury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul notes that we need to hold an annual business meeting.&nbsp;&nbsp;We separated our annual meeting from the Super Regional.&nbsp;&nbsp;Last year we had a virtual business meeting.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the past we have offered scholarships to our meetings, but not to the super regional meeting.&nbsp;&nbsp;Regina notes that we can consider doing that if we like.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul: this is a reboot for the super regional and we should get behind it.&nbsp;&nbsp;It could be important and useful. The other regional orgs will do the same.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We should consider these scholarships.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dan Skinner explains the scholarship process:&nbsp;&nbsp;We\u2019ve sent out an email and asked people to apply online.&nbsp;&nbsp;We had a subcommittee decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adjourned at 3:10 pm ET<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PRIMA BOARD MEETINGApril 21, 2021 Meeting convenes at 2:30 pm In attendance:&nbsp; Paul MaassenNico LeoneNeenah EllisDan SkinnerRegina DeanRichard MilesSteve Schram &#8211; ExcusedMyrna Johnson &#8211; Excused AGENDA: Super Regional conference 1.
