8/23/2020

0 Comments

 
.As you may recall, the NASE national convention was postponed and then eventually cancelled for 2020. We encourage all FSA employees to, at a minimum, attend the sessions in Teams to hear from national leaders. You can find out more details about the convention on the NASCOE site at https://nascoe.org/convention-information/convention-2020/ including an agenda for the 61st NASCOE Convention with attachments containing links for all sessions and DAFO Memo for Admin Leave. (Opens as PDF in separate window).

In the meantime, please stay tuned for an update about NASE business meetings for 2020.

NASE Newsletter July 2020

7/30/2020

0 Comments

 
​I would like to update everyone on the status of the 2020 NACS/NASE/NADD National Convention that was to be held August 30-September 3 in Omaha, NE.  You may have heard already, but the 2020 convention has been officially cancelled.  It was a difficult decision for the Employee Associations to make, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we felt it was in the best interest of everyone involved. 
 
For any members that have already submitted their registration fees, the Convention Committee will be providing you a full refund.  Committee Chair, Maureen Mausbach, NE, will have the refunds processed within the next week or two.
 
NASE Executive Board members serve a 2-year term, so thankfully, elections were not needed this year.  Current Zone Representatives have agreed to serve another year.  Below you will find the NASE Executive Board and Zone Reps for 2020-2021:
 
President – Tamee Renwick, IL                                                 
Vice-President – Norma Miller, IL                                                            Zone A Rep – Kim Dewbre, NM
Secretary – Tania Perlinger, NE                                                                Zone B Rep – Kelly Anderson, TX
Treasurer – Nancy Reiff, IN                                                                       Zone C Rep – Brittany Harney, IN
Past President – Angie Biester, NE                                                           Zone D Rep – Jackie Bigham, AR
 
The following are a few housekeeping items that were discussed during the July NASE Board meeting.  The categories are being handled somewhat differently due to COVID and no National Convention.
 
  1. Committees - NASE needs to completely fill our various committees.  Members will soon be contacted by Tamee Renwick or Norma Miller to ask for your participation.
  2. Award Nominations - any 2020 nominations submitted to Norma Miller by August 7th  will be carried over to next year’s convention.
  3. Task Force Members – if you served on a Task Force this past year, please provide a brief report to Tamee and Norma via email by September 30, 2020. 
  4. Resolutions – We will be forwarding our resolutions to National Office for 2020.   Please submit your resolutions to the Resolution Coordinators, Norma Miller and Angie Biester by August 14th. 
 
Remember, resolutions can be submitted at any time.  Please visit our website for a resolution form or just to browse!  The website is located at www.fsanase.org.   
 
Please stay healthy!!
 
Tamee Renwick
NASE President

2020 Convention New Dates: Aug 20-Sept 3

5/11/2020

0 Comments

 
​A quick note from NASE President, Tamee Renwick……
 
I received word from Convention Committee Chair, Maureen Mausbach, NE, that the rescheduled dates for the NACS/NASE/NADD National Convention are August 30 – September 3, 2020, in Omaha, NE.  The convention will be held at the Omaha Hilton Downtown. 
The Convention Committee hopes to have registration information out soon.  When it is, we will send an email to our membership as well as posting the information to our NASE website (www.fsanase.org).  Please keep in mind that our meeting is subject to the COVID-19 regulations that are/could be place in Nebraska.  Let’s hope the pandemic is nearing an end by then, but…….
If you will be flying to Omaha, you may want to check out the various airlines for cheap flights.  Currently, Southwest has some great rates.  Some of the flights are non-stop and as low as $49.00 one-way!!
Remember...SAVE THE DATE...August 30 - September 3, 2020!
I hope everyone is well and staying healthy!  I know all our offices are extremely busy, but please take a few minutes each day for yourself …. relax and rejuvenate!!
