2 Page 2 The District Two Resolution July 2012 From the Director s Desk by Darlene T. Allen, PRP Greetings! I hope this issue of The District Two Resolution finds you in good spirits and keeping cool despite the record-setting temperatures. Some of you are preparing to attend the National Association of Parliamentarians Training Conference in Scottsdale, Arizona. You will find the article written by Jason Morgan, RP, quite helpful. If you won t be joining us in Arizona, then we ll meet up at the District Two Conference. The conference will be held October 5-7, 2012, in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Conference cocoordinators, Mary Jo Neil and Wanda M. Sims, RP, have provided important information in this newsletter. The theme of the conference, A Brighter Future Awaits You, is an adaptation from the suggestion sent in by Frank E. Guthrie, RP. In keeping with NAP President Maurice S. Henderson s theme of Starring Excellence, the district theme during will be Raising the Standard, Achieving Excellence. The efforts to achieve excellence begin with unit study. The Membership Extension and Retention Committee (MERC), which is comprised of the NAP vice-president and the eight district directors, has set the following goals: 1. Increase membership retention by 1% from 2011; 2. Increase new members by 10% over 2011; 3. Identify viable areas for chartering as a state/unit by July 31, 2012; Darlene T. Allen, PRP, District Two Director 4. Publicize the unit and association awards program early; and 5. Conduct an all-member electronic survey with a goal of 500 responses. In addition to the MERC goals, each state association has indentified internal goals and is working to achieve them. For example, goals such as revising all governing documents, identifying possible membership leads/sources, and growing the leadership pool of candidates to hold unit and state offices are being reviewed. As district director, I have attended the annual meetings/conventions of the District of Columbia, Kentucky, Maryland, and Virginia Associations. We have many hard working, dedicated and knowledgeable members working to keep parliamentary procedure viable in their states. Continue the good work, and let s meet at the District Two Conference to keep the parliamentary procedure fire burning in our district!

5 July 2012 The District Two Resolution Page 5 Have You Heard? Scottsdale is the Place for Stars (continued from page 1) Ferial S. Bishop, PRP (DC), First Vice President of the District of Columbia Association of Parliamentarians (DCAP) ( Committees: The Foundation of an Organization ); James (Jim) Jones, PRP (IL), NAP Board Director-at-Large, and Loretta Tillery, [MD (DC)] NAP Communications Committee member and Historian of the DCAP ( Board Star Power ); Ruth S.

The 2012 NAP Training Conference, sponsored by the Arizona State Association of Parliamentarians, is a bargain at only $ ($ for full-time students). Conference attendees will be able to choose from more than two dozen parliamentary procedure workshops during the three-day conference. In addition, five meals are included in the registration package. Purchased à la carte, the fee for all of these educational and networking opportunities would exceed $600.00, but you can get it all for half that price! With so much available, everyone in District Two can benefit by Shooting for the Stars this summer. Are you getting ready to take NAP s Registration Examination to become a registered parliamentarian (RP)? If so, plan to attend the preparation session for the examination at 8:00 AM on Thursday, August 23, 2012, the day before the NAP Training Conference begins. Are you more ambitious than the average RP? There are fewer than three dozen active professional registered parliamentarians (PRPs) living in District Two. Show your commitment to the study and practice of parliamentary law by joining this elite group of professionals by preparing to take the Professional Qualifying Course (PQC). As a PRP, you will have earned the highest level of NAP accreditation and be able to participate in NAP s professional referral service. Plan to attend a series of two preparation sessions for the PQC at 7:00 PM on Thursday, August 23, 2012, and at 9:00 AM on Friday, August 24, Already a PRP? Attend the NAP Training Conference to continue building your knowledge and honing your skills, all while networking with colleagues. PRPs must pass the Professional Recertification Course (PRC) every six years. The preparation sessions mentioned above are also designed to assist current PRPs who are planning to take the PRC. Are you a retired PRP? Then please plan to attend and share your knowledge and experience with others in the NAP community. Think back to all the support you received from mentors and colleagues throughout the years. Why did they do it? Because helping others develop as parliamentarians is fun and rewarding. The individuals who will be Shooting for the Stars this summer are among the most committed and motivated members of NAP. Be there for them so that they can be there for others for the future. The 2012 NAP Training Conference registration packet is available online at It includes additional details, including the costs for meals that are not included in the registration fee and hotel reservation information.
