10/4/00 Longmont Amateur Radio Club - Board Meeting

• - Goal:
  Have the club continue and prosper for multiple years.

• - Finances:
  • All income for the club will be from member dues and donations. This will require many of the expense items from previous years be eliminated.
  • Swap Fest time slot will be made available to other clubs for the Year 2001 and be reevaluated next year.
  • Autopatch - Unless we have a great benefactor show up with annual donations of over $325 to cover costs, the Autopatch will remain members only access.
  • Liability and equipment insurance will be maintained.
  • News letter will be online only. Those without regular internet access will need to use the library to read information. This saves the club about 2/3 of the dues.

• - Meetings:
  • Regular monthly membership meetings will continue on the third Wednesday of each month at 1900 hours as in the past.
  • Board meetings will be scheduled as required. The majority of the Board business will be conducted via E-mail - the results of which will be posted on the "SplatterEditor" web page for all to read.
  • Saturday morning Breakfast meetings will become weekly at the Sunny Vale Cafe - A better location will be investigated. Sunny Vale has good food but a less than optimal meeting room.
  • Responsibility for regular meetings will rotate within the Board.
  • With the current count of Board members, each Board member will handle two regular membership meetings per year. The schedule will be maintained two months in advance.
  • Bob Dornan has the October meeting and Chris Miller has the November meeting.

• - Board Members:
  • Will initially be the six volunteers but may be supplemented by past board members that would like to participate.

• - Board Votes:
  • Should there be a question before the board that requires a vote, a tie vote (equal number of votes for and against the motion) will be considered a failure of the motion.

• - Membership Input:
  • Membership input on any/all subjects is solicited.
  • Members that do not have regular E-mail can have their input displayed on the LARC-MEMB reflector by sending an E-mail to [email protected] - Pat will insure all E-mail received this way is forwarded to the reflector (members without regular E-mail will not be registered on the reflector and cannot submit to the reflector themselves).
