History of the Plano Area NCL Chapter
The Plano Area Chapter was started on February 8, 2000. Twenty-one women attended this initial meeting of the chapter. At that time, a Board of Directors was elected and over the next several months, many informational meetings were held. This brought the membership up to 65 Patronesses and 74 Ticktockers.
After establishing the by-laws, Ticktocker procedures, standing rules and transfer procedures, the chapter was approved for Provisional status in September, 2000. The chapter operated under Provisional status for one year and was advanced to Charter status on September 10, 2001, at the National Board meeting. On April 26, 2002, we received our official Charter at the National Convention in Long Beach, California. As of January 2004, we have a membership of 97 Patronesses and 112 Ticktockers.
