Why should I attend a state meeting?
I have been asked by CBA members why I go to state meetings when they run so long. I think the duration of state meetings discourages the average CBA member from attending. I think many members look upon the state meetings as a chore.
Many members who are not chapter officers do not feel they need to attend state CBA meetings. While it is not a requirement for non-officers to attend state meetings, we are all invited and encouraged to take an active role in understanding what is going on in the organization by attending state meetings. We are encouraged to offer our suggestions for improvements, and encouraged to share the load on chapter officers who may not be able to attend all state meetings.
Many of us work for big companies that hold one hour staff meetings every week for tactical and strategic planning purposes. If your team had 100 members in it, that meeting would probably run all day. If we only held meetings every three months, it would probably take over one week to have the meeting.
The CBA holds meetings for 100 attendees every three months and manages to get them done in 4-6 hours. While no meeting is perfect and there are always ways to improve the efficiency of a meeting, this member's opinion is that the meetings move along well considering the amount of material and planning that needs to be covered in a quarterly meeting.
Please! Take some time out of your busy schedule and attend a state meeting with your chapter officers. Attending will help you understand the CBA on a higher level. It will show you all of the work that is going on behind the scenes that the average member doesn't normally see. The next step up from being a CBA member is to be an active CBA member at the state level. That requires you to understand how the organization operates. The best place to see that is to attend a state meeting.
