PRESENT: Joyce Martin,

APPROVAL
OF MINUTES FROM
OLD
BUSINESS:
Diana
Shilling discussed the September Sectional.
She has found Caddies for the Swiss
Teams. Charlie Pender will post
signs. There are sign ups sheets for
assistance with set up and take down as well as donations of food.
We
have been carrying Directors and Officers Insurance. ACBL will now buy for everyone with no charge
to the local club. This will save us
about $400/year. We will keep our
current coverage until we are certain that this insurance is covering our club.
There
was a request from the Game Director for payment of $100.00 for not holding a
Sunday game during the 299er sectional.
There was a discussion. It was
moved, seconded and passed to pay $100.00 to Mark Hasey. We had intended that his working at the
Sectional was to cover this payment. This was not clear to all involved and
We
are still looking for persons to run for the positions on the board. There will be 4 vacancies.
We
have discussed having one of the directors on the board. It would take a by-law amendment. We are a 501 c entity under the Rules of the
Internal Revenue Service. This is because of the Dolores Abrams
Legacy. We will table this for now.
We
discussed having one of the board members attend the directors meetings. We would take turns doing this. A motion was made, 2nd and passed
to do this.
NEW
BUSINESS: We have had many complaints
about taking the water filter system out of the kitchen. We will check on the cost of replacing it.
FINANCIAL
REPORT: Sam presented us with the
Financial Reports. It was moved,
seconded and passed to approve them.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: In October we will be having the annual
Dolores Abraham Unit game. It is free
so we must limit the number of tables.
Our
next meeting is
Adjourned
Respectfully
Submitted

Le Roy, Secretary
