Old Business:
Questions came up as to why we need to say the Good Sam Pledge at every meeting. An attempt was made to vote on this by email and the email vote was later pulled for discussion at the December gathering. A motion was made to continue the Pledge at all meetings. A vote was taken with 11 in favor and 13 against. The reciting of the pledge will be dispensed of.
New Business:
Mike DeRose provided some suggestions for the WNY website and asked if it could be set up for members only to view information in order to avoid non- members from viewing roster and specific dates of campouts. He stated that the information currently on the page in regards to campouts alerts people of when families are away from home. Diana stated that she is not sure if it is possible to do so but if it is, there would probably be a nominal cost. Mike then suggested then that the dates of the campouts be removed from the website and agreement was made to remove the information.
A discussion was held in regards to having meetings at every campout and whether it was necessary to continue to do so. Some felt that it took time away from those that may want to sightsee or do other planned activities in the morning. Others didn’t think there was a big deal if we had a meeting for 20 minutes or if it should be left at the discretion of the President if there is something that needs to be discussed. Diana stated that according to the SOP’s, the only required meeting is during the month of June. All other meetings are at the discretion of the President. It was also suggested that meeting times could be changed or if particular plans were made by anyone, it would be up to them if they wanted to attend the meeting or not.
A discussion about having the Christmas Party catered in the future and how it could be funded was held. Suggestion was made by Mike DeRose that the fee for attending the Christmas Party would depend on the number of campouts attended. (See chart below for possible charges). Individuals thought it might be nicer if we could have it catered instead of Pizza and Wings. Dick Kashdin made a motion to table this discussion until September. All in favor.
For the Good of the Club
Dick Kashdin wanted to show his appreciation for the officers, those sitting on committees and those who organize all the meals and activities.
Respectfully Submitted,
Jan Ingerson
