May 3 Meeting: All Directors present. --A rumor regarding possible mis— handling of the proxy ballots was discussed. George read a list of all the owners who had received a proxy in the last 2 years (the ones being questioned). Four proxies were the most received by one owner (Bill Riggs,l993). Several members asked about inspecting the ballots. Other members expressed a preference for as much privacy as possible regarding their votes (as has been expressed several times in past meetings). Joan asked those present who should decide who can inspect the bal— lots...just the people in the meet— ing, or the general membership. One member’s response was, “If people out there are not interested enough to attend these meetings I don't care if they get a vote or not.” Another member said, “I’m here about half the time. When I am here I participate in the meetings. When I’m not here I voted for the Board to take care of business. 1 do not want a handful of people in one room making the decisions.” Joan suggested that the Board place the issue of inspecting the ballots on the agenda for the special meeting being called (see below). ——Fence Encroachment Policy Agreement: The Board voted to adopt a letter of agreement as drafted by the POA’s attorney, Steve Russell. The agreement is a written and recorded acknowledgement by owners whose fences encroach into the POA owned easements of their en— croachment and the potential need to move their fences if a public need arises as determined in the Fence Encroachment Policy. --The following agenda items were tabled until next meeting: “Vote on formal request for cul-de-sacs from Fire Chief (Floyd Stoughton)”; “Castle Valley in— formation pamphlet, re: funding”; “work plan for revision of POA. By-Laws." -—May 24th Special Meeting: a special meeting of the members is being called by the Board to vote on the transfer of funds to the Town of Castle Valley. A work ses— sion to write up materials to be sent to all owners was scheduled for May 5th. May 5th work meeting: All Board members present. ——The Board worked on wording of the cover letter and the two ad— ditional items to be voted on (regarding inspection of ballots and . making owners' names and ad— dresses available). --A work meeting to mail the bal— lots was scheduled for May 9th, 7 PM at the LDS Branch. May 9th work meeting: All members present except Richard Williams (at work).. ——The mailing for the special May election was completed with the help of Mynoa Williams, Jack Campbell, and Valli Smouse. Joan Sangree, POA Chair ORTHOBIONOMY This term comes from the Greek root ortho, which means genuine or straight and from bionomy, which means the science that deals with the natural laws of life. It is based on a principle of discovering the preferred body posture so a spontaneous release can occur. The body is gently moved away from the area of dis— comfort or pain and is guided into the direction where the greatest ease of movement is found. By finding positions of comfort, the body can unwind from chronic holding patterns and be re-educated with new models for structural alignment. As a pattern of tension is released during a session, the relaxation and integration process can continue. This powerful process: *Deeply releases tension and relaxes muscles after an injury or onset of acute pain *Affects structural alignment *Stimulates a biofeedback mecha— nism that helps the body recognize and let go of structural hold— ing patterns *Unwinds and releases physical and emotional trauma held in the body *Supports individual experience of profound relaxation and awareness A two day hands—on workshop introducing the philosophy and concepts of Orthobionomy will be held June 3rd & 4th, from 10am to 5:30pm in Castle Valley. The class is taught by Bettina Seidl, who has worked in the field of holistic health since 1982. She has been teaching Ortho—Bionomy for seven years. During the years of her practice, she has developed a unique approach to bodywork which draws on various types of body therapy as well as counseling, movement and breath—work and intuitive guidance. Her goal is to make her sessions and workshops an opportunity for growth. The techniques that will be demonstrated are easy to learn and pleasant to gave and receive. No previous bodywork experience is necessary. Most of the techniques which will be taught can be used for self-care in addition to being effective tools for working with others. Class size is limited to 14, so please reserve your space early. For more information, please call Drew Roots at 259—5610.
