3. Plan meetings:
   1. Send announcements of meetings via email and also through Courier Service in print. (If Directors receive a written meeting announcement at their Board meeting, more people attend.)
   2. Minutes of your meetings should be approved by members (email is fine) and posted on the the RALC Wiki
   3. At the end of each meeting's agenda, it’s good to have sharing and question time. Everyone learns from this.
