On the
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Vice Present Mike McGrew had a suggestion for the August meeting - have the
swap meet in the evening and classes in the morning. The meeting could easily
be conducted in the afternoon, followed by supper and then the swap meet. Make
sure it's put in the bulletin several months before so we will draw a large
group. Lowell Roberts made a motion to do this and was 2nd'd by Jim Loomis and
approved. Mike thanked D.W. Dowless for the great
class he taught.
Secretary Jackie Roberts said she had no applications and if we didn't have
any app’s that told us we were not growing. Jackie asked how many were using
our website. Only six people raised their hands. Question was asked if it was
worth what we were paying. It was brought up that the web did not match the
bulletin and that it needed to match.
Treasurer Loretta Loomis gave the financial report. Bills were paid for Feb,
2001. As of the 23rd of April we have $20,251.11.
Education Director Charles Hudecek said he was
receiving some resistance from the manufacturers for the August classes. He
said he would keep working on it.
NEW BUSINESS
President Jerry Casey said we needed someone to head up a nominating
committee. Randy Knot said he would. Thanks Randy.
Vice President Mike McGrew said things were lined up for August. Things were
worked out for November. Things were worked out for February.
Secretary Jackie Roberts on registration we had 19. If things are to be in
the bulletin and don't get in call Jerry and he will call Paula.
Treasurer Loretta Loomis needed to approve the bills for the weekend. Frank Bellizzi made a motion to approve the bills, Gary Frame
2nd'd.
Past President Lowell Roberts told Charles Hudecek
to tell the manufactures Aloa and
Sergeant-at-arms Johnny Stewart said we had 16 members and 5 guests present.
Education Director Charles Hudecek said Jim Blazer
has agreed to do the classes for November, a two day course at $125.00 a piece
- cost may go up and a lab fee of $40.00 will be confirmed later. He asked what
everyone thought about setting up PRP testing. Will get with
us later on this.
Director Frank Bellizzi said we need to
pre-register to save time. Paula needs to run this in the bulletin several
months before our meeting. There will be a late charge of $25.00 if you do not
pre-register.
