I am glad that this webpage was helpful going into our February meeting! The team loved knowing you missed their in-person presentation of the Mission Moment. They will be returning this month. Additionally, our Bankers from Happy State Bank will join us to report on our Trusts’ investment strategies and tips and tricks to understand the statement.

Please join me in offering well wishes to both Dakota Lippon & Holly Wood, who have submitted their resignations from the Board. Dakota has been working diligently to grow her practice and seeing more conflict between her client and HHP schedules. Though she cannot commit to the Board for now, she’d like to help whenever possible. Holly is in a season of extracurricular activities with her children, which many of us can understand and know is fleeting. Thank you both for your hard work!

Thank you, Bre for contributing to the “Good to Great and the Social Sectors” discussion and sharing the highlight, “The confusion between inputs and outputs stems from one of the primary differences between business and the social sectors. In business, money is both an input (a resource for achieving greatness) and an output (a measure of greatness). In the social sectors, money is only an input, and not a measure of greatness.” I had highlighted from page 9, “Greatness is inherently a dynamic process, and not an end point. The moment you think of yourself as great, your slide toward mediocrity will have already begun.” I don’t know about you all, but I always want The HHP to work with guiding morals, values, and principles toward a vision. Your hard work on our Strategic Plan has been a big part of that and set us on the path to the Road to Hope!

In preparation for the meeting, please:

1. Review the Proposed Meeting Agenda (* indicates a vote is needed)

2. Scroll down and pay close attention to each Pre-Read section (each section is no more than a 3-minute read).

3. Review the votes we plan on taking during the Meeting.

4. Add any thoughts or questions in advance using the comments section at the bottom of the page. Note that the team will only address the questions submitted based on your review of the materials, so it's important to share your insights beforehand.

We aim to maximize our time by thoroughly discussing each committee's business. It would be greatly appreciated if you could take the time to think through your questions beforehand.
