April General Minutes
JMTA GENERAL MEETING – April 11, 2012
Riverside Presbyterian Church

Members Present:  (11) Beth Martelli, Lorraine Eaton, Paulette Kilts, Lydia Sanchez, Lynn Freeman, Susan Figlietti, Sandra Stewart, Mary Wingfield, Martha McKie, Michelle Huang , and Denise Homsley.  Guest Present: (1) Lana DeCoto (sister of Paulette Kilts).

President Beth Martelli called the meeting to order at 9:37 a.m.  The minutes were read and approved.

Paulette Kilts gave the Treasurer’s Report.  Paulette Kilts reported that when she was reviewing the annual report for the State of Florida, she noticed the JMTA officer list needs to be updated.  She recommended it be done online as soon as possible, especially as we are in the process of renewing the 501c3.

Martha McKie discussed the necessary paperwork to be completed for a 501c3.  She suggested seeking someone other than herself; who might be more familiar with the paperwork and process required.  Paulette Kilts suggested seeking a CPA, and will try to will get an estimate of expense for services from a CPA before the next meeting.

It was mentioned with regard to renewing the 501c3 that an article may need to be added to the bylaws stating where the Jacksonville Music Teachers Association monies would be distributed in the event the organization dissolved.  Mary Wingfield made a motion that wording for the article be put in process and Paulette seconded the motion.  Detailed wording of the motion will be approved at another meeting.   The motion passed.

Committee Reports:
Concerto Competition:  Mary Wingfield reported that the Concerto Competition winners will be performing at today’s program.

Membership:  Susan Figlietti and Martha McKie are serving as mentors.  Lorraine needs forms by the end of the month in order to prepare end of year reports.  Lorraine would like to recognize new members at the May meeting.  She suggested giving them flowers.

Provisional:  There are currently two provisional members:  Lorie Birmingham and Heather Schaeffer.

Programs:  The May meeting will be held at the home of Aida Mechetti.  Dr. Michael Mastronicola will present the program.  It was decided to present Dr. Mastronicola with a restaurant gift card.

Membership/Historian News
All of our new members that have joined this past year are expressly invited to our last meeting of the year, May 9, 2012.  All of our “old” members, please come out and meet these newcomers to our organization.  Let’s show them how integral a part of our organization they are!

Also, you should have received your dues renewal in the mail from MTNA by now.  Please send that in right away.  A new directory supplement will be printed in the fall, and if your renewal is not in, your name will not be on it!  There are also deadlines to renew by to participate in local, district, state, and national events.

The updated Historian book was passed around at the last meeting, and enjoyed by all.  If you missed it, be sure to check it out at our May meeting!  Remember, you can always send me your pictures, newspaper articles, programs, etc. pertaining to any and all JMTA/FSMTA/MTNA events to be included in the Historian archives.  I cannot be at all events, so I consider each and every one of you my assistant Historians!
