The 2024 Butler County Extension Leadership Development Training is Thursday, February 29, at the Butler County Extension Service at 6:00 p.m. We will have a session on Parliamentary Procedure and a session on taking Secretary minutes. 

The Parliamentary Procedure training is always popular. We will practice handling motions, and discuss how majority rules, but the rights of the minority must be respected. 

Accurate minutes are important for any organization. What needs to be recorded? How detailed should they be? We will examine what Robert’s Rules of Order say about the issue. 

Any group must have strong leaders to be effective. Leaders are not born, they are developed. 

We will finish at 8:00 p.m. There is no fee for the program, and I sincerely hope you can participate. Leaders from across our community are being invited. Registration is not required, but if you think you will attend, please call the Extension Office know at 526-3767 or e-mail me directly at [email protected]
