2. Staff Celebration Luncheon

Eric will be on vacation. Other Program Committee members, Jane, Sylvia, and Ellen, will be in charge. Janet will coordinate the food. Not all sign-up envelopes have been returned to Eric. Eric will collect them by Monday afternoon and work with Janet on food and other miscellaneous arrangements.

3. Travel documents

CPD has developed a new travel form. CPD Chair Jane was teaching an instruction class. We made some suggestions, including adding a ground transportation and parking line and a notes line under "Funding Requested".
The travel guideline was reviewed. We suggested two changes, one typo and one added statement in the beginning of the document: "The professional development funds can be used for travel as well as research. Below is the guideline for travel." Cathy will deliver the suggestions to Jane.
