In the interest of efficient time management, registrants will be emailed meeting reports (budget, membership, etc.) in advance and copies of those reports will be provided to all attendees during the morning registration session. This should eliminate the need for oral reporting (except perhaps allocating some time for questions about the reports) to ensure that we can accomplish all of our business.
