Between the Work, Team ISEA Makes Time to Connect With Colleagues


Leaders from East Central UniServ Unit stop to pose for a photo before heading into the banquet at Summer Conference. East Central leaders (from left to right) are: Nancy Notton-Stumpff/Benton EA and ECUU Executive Board; Karen Hartlep/Benton EA and ECUU president; Dave Ulrick/ECUU UniServ Director; Coy Marquardt/ECUU UniServ Director; myself; and Bill Hynds/ECUU representative to ISEA Retired Committee. Those gathered here are only just a few of the many ECUU members that participated in Summer Conference. Thanks, ECUU for the great things you continue to do to involve members!

Pictured at right with me is Sheryl Ballard from our great Team ISEA Headquarters staff. Sheryl's official title at ISEA is "Administrative Assistant to the Assistant Executive Director". Sheryl and Kathy Bosovich together headed up our efforts in organizing yet again another great Summer Conference. Thanks, Sheryl, Kathy and all the great staff that worked so hard back home in our regional offices to encourage and sign up members to attend, for those that presented such awesome and innovative sessions that reached across all of Team ISEA's membership, and for the work you did to make our entire conference go so smoothly. You make it look easy, but we know it takes yeoman's work. Thanks for all you do as members of Team ISEA!


And talk about some innovative sessions! Team ISEA UniServ Directors Cindy Carroll/Unit Two and Jeremy Kunz/NEIEU presented a session on "Party With a Purpose" on Thursday morning. Ideas were shared and plans were made to encourage members to be active in their local association. Thanks Cindy and Jeremy and all our professional staff (and leaders too) that led sessions at Summer Conference.
