Fall Workshop 08/13/2010 by President Rick Callaway Attention all NMEA Committees: I have been informing everyone about the fall workshop and its format all year and it is now approaching. All state chairpersons are required to attend and they must contact their district chairpersons and inform them of their required attendance. The workshop will start at 10:00am and will consist of seven round table committees each forty five minute session. The agenda is being worked out right now and will be sent to you within a week. This will allow the President Elect the Vice President and me to set in and get an update on the progress of your committee. This workshop will help us better communicate with each other and allow us to see the pros and cons of each committee. I can’t stress enough how important it is for you to be ready for this workshop. Please contact your fellow committee chairpersons and begin preparing for the workshop. As we have been previously pointing out to you the workshop is on October 2nd, this is balloon fiesta weekend. You should all have your rooms reserved by now and please plan on staying for the CP Drawing that evening as well as dinner and a dance. Please leave “No STONE Unturned”. Fraternally, Rick Callaway, NMEA President (109)

Ex. Member 09/04/2010 by President Rick Callaway "Attention" all Elks Lodges of New Mexico. If a member of the Texas State Elks Association named James Sojak tries to enter your Lodge, you are to turn him away. If he refuses you are to contact the Police and have him removed from your property. This man has brought reproach against our Order. Rick Callaway, NMEA President (115)
