Attend an organized meeting at your school, in your community, in city government, or for a professional organization. Take notes and record the proceedings as if you were covering the meeting for a non-attender.

Your Task. Write the meeting minutes using either a formal or informal format. Include all the data necessary, following the textbook instructions. Focus on committee reports, old and new business, motions and votes, decisions made, and action items for future meetings. Include the organization’s name and the date, time, and location of the meeting in the heading.
