The nonprofit Ku‘ikahi Mediation Center is hosting the 2016 Puna Homeowners Association Conference, “Tools for Success,” from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. June 25 at Keaau High School.
Puna homeowners association board officers, directors, staff and community members are invited to gain tools for success in the areas of member relations, association leadership and meeting management.
“Managing the large private subdivisions in Puna, which stretches from Volcano to Seaview, is not a simple task,” said Ku‘ikahi Executive Director Julie Mitchell. “We want to support our largely volunteer community leaders to succeed, whether in overcoming challenges, enhancing opportunities, or being of service to members and neighbors.”
The free conference allows interested associations to exchange ideas and gain knowledge in three concurrent sessions discussing board and meeting success.
Board success sessions are: “By-Laws” with Vaughn Cook; “Best Board Practices” with Julie Hugo; and “Transparency” with a panel moderated by Jon Henricks.
Meeting success sessions are: “Ground Rules” with Lorraine Mendoza, Lucille Chung and Kimberly Dark; “Parliamentary Procedures” with Henricks; and “Meeting Facilitation” with Dark.
Pre-registration is required for the conference, which includes lunch. For online registration, visit www.hawaiimediation.org/events.html. For registration assistance, contact Jenifer at 935-7844, ext. 1, or jenifer@hawaiimediation.org .
The conference is made possible in part by funding from the Hawaii Island United Way, County of Hawaii District 4 and 5 contingency funds and other sponsors.
