Erin's Note: It has taken me a LONG time to finish this recap as you may have noticed. I kept going back to the absurdity of this meeting, how is was being run, the blatant disregard of IDGOP bylaws, Robert's Rules of Order procedure, and lack of decorum that I am praying to God there is a LARGE turnover during this upcoming PC election. That's all I will say about that. Call to Order Invocation – Tamara Bateson Pledge of Allegiance – Rob Barrans Programs and/or Special
