Nominations and elections for Chair and Secretary
Tracy Lauzon, The Medical Center of Aurora, is nominated and accepts the position as Chair of CTN. Theresa Dorsey, Avista Adventist Hospital, volunteered for the position as CTN Secretary. Mary Shelton and Phyllis will meet with Theresa and Tracy to share information for a smooth transition.
Board positions to be filled
There are five board positions which have opened up since our meeting in October. Rob Little is no longer at Lutheran in trauma, Donovan Ehrman has completed his FNP program and no longer will be with trauma at Northern Colorado Medical Center, Nancy Frizell has accepted a position on SEMTAC and feels she can no longer fully participate with CTN and is relinquishing her position on the board. Chris Duran is no longer on the board and Peggy Ray has resigned her position with The Children’s Hospital and is no longer on the board, Lucinda Giblin will be taking her place. Peggy Berkey, Sky Ridge Medical Center, will be taking a position on the board, Tracy Lauzon will be holding a board seat and there remains two yet to fill from our previous list. One seat appears to have remained open and as such we will have three to fill in 2009 to have a full compliment of 17 board members.

Update from Website Committee
There was some good information brought forward from the committee however most did require a change of our hosting service. Our annual expense for the hosting fee is $64.50 per year which is very reasonable. Mary Shelton contacted our hosting service, Internet Planners, and they recommended Joanne Pryor of Office Doctors to rebuild the CTN site. Right now Joanne is very busy but may be able to get to our project before the New Year if we choose to have her do it. Her estimate for this project is $500.00. Mary described what the group wants within the site and Joanne feels it is doable and we may be able to maintain it ourselves which will save money in the long run. Mary offered to seek out other bids for the job but the group felt that would not be necessary and the fee Joanne quoted was reasonable. Mary will e-mail links to the sites which Joanne has done in the past so the group can see her work.
New
Business
No new business was introduced.
The White Elephant gift exchange was a hit as always with a few special highlights. Karan Hutchins took home a rubber chicken, Jean Marso got a set of actual white elephant salt and pepper shakers, and lucky Darcy Gentry received the venerable nose picker guy! Needless to say a good time was had by all.
