There were no minutes from
the previous meeting as the handwritten notes had been given to Nelson and have
not yet been entered into the club website.
The treasurer's report was
read by Mal Adsit, KC2CUJ. Fred, KC2KBQ,
moved that Mal's report to be approved. Delores,
KC2KYN, seconded the motion. It was
approved.
Old Business
Steve, WA2VQD, reported that
he had discussed a topic from last month’s meeting with Ernie. The topic (old business) was that the bylaws
be revised to allow associate members to be elected to office, at least in the
case of the Secretary. The result of the
discussion is that the change is not necessary and the request to change the
bylaws be withdrawn. (A simpler solution
was discussed, that we ask for a volunteer to take notes in the absence of the
Secretary and a club officer would see that the notes were forwarded to the Website
Editor.)
(Someone) mentioned that the
previously approved purchase of three new picnic tables would probably wait for
spring as the inventory at Sam’s Club was running out.
New Business
Fred, KC2KBQ announced that
the Black River Stages event needs Ham Radio operators on October 6 through
8. Additional information is at their
website http://www.blackriverstages.com/
(Except for the picture of a car, there
is nothing on the first page to tell us that the event is a road rally or maybe
a race.) The best suggestion for Ham
Radio information was to contact Pete, KC2WI via the Black River Valley Amateur
Radio Club, http://www.qsl.net/brvarc/
Mal, KC2CUJ, brought a letter
addressed to the club in
Don, KB2VMR, brought a QSL
card (and SASE) received via the club PO Box.
The upcoming club election is
another piece of new business. (I did
not note who raised the topic but many offered input.) It was suggested that we appoint a committee,
or at least a chairman to search for members willing to serve as officers for
the coming year. After informal
discussion, including someone’s recollection that we had at least one volunteer
at least month’s meeting, it was suggested that we proceed with volunteers identified
so far and present the slate of candidates at the next meeting. (At his point we still need a Secretary,
Trustee and Activity Director.)
The Fall Ball was also
announced. It is scheduled for Saturday,
October 14 at the North Side (Improvement) League.
Ron, KC2JGP, moved that the
meeting be adjourned. Paul, KC2GWT,
seconded the motion. The meeting ended
at approximately
Respectfully submitted,
