A few folks actually came from as far away as San Francisco and Ukiah. The audience seemed very interested in learning how to write grant letters - including the all-important budget proposal.
This was Ullman's second visit to Lake County. His first visit was last year at the Greenview Restaurant, when his topic was grant-seeking basics. Hopefully, before he comes again next year, Lake County will have its own cooperating collection (mini philanthropic library with material from The Foundation Center) inside the new Middletown Public Library.
To help facilitate that process, the services of the Ukiah Cooperating Collection are being sought. It is hoped someone from that collection can bring some material to display at the HVL Spring Fling, which is scheduled to take place, Saturday, May 16, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, it is hoped that Marty Keller, Small Business Advocate for the State of California, will also be attending this festival.

LAKE COUNTY – April 22 is rapidly approaching, which means it is time to start thinking about how to say thank you to the hardest working people in your office – your administrative professionals.
The last full week in April is officially Administrative Professionals Week, with Administrative Professionals Day always being celebrated on the Wednesday during that week.
The National Secretaries Association, now known as the IAAP, was the originator of this now popular holiday. The association successfully campaigned U.S. Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer to proclaim the first National Secretaries Week on June 1-7, 1952.
According to the IAAP Web site, they created National Secretaries Week with two objectives in mind: to recognize "the secretary, upon whose skills, loyalty, and efficiency the functions of business and government offices depend," and to call attention "through favorable publicity, to the tremendous potential of the secretarial career."
In 2000, the word Secretary was changed to Administrative Professional to keep pace with changing job titles and the greater responsibilities that these positions typically encompass.
Jones and Lewis Clear Lake Memorial Chapel of Lower Lake will host a reception in honor of Lake County’s Administrative Professionals on April 22 at the Clear Lake Chamber of Commerce, now located in the Highlands Senior Center.
Jones and Lewis manager Karen Karnatz asks that Lake County managers and business owners allow their administrative staff to join her, the Jones and Lewis staff and the volunteers at the Clear Lake Chamber from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. for hors d'oeuvres and door prizes.
For more information, or to RSVP to this event, please contact Karen Karnatz at 707-994-6417. Please bring your business cards.
