On MOTION and SECOND, the minutes of the annual meeting held in December 2011 were approved as posted on the web site. John Vorhies reported on the status of the treasury and the fact that membership was at 99 at this time. Jack reported on the sale of the Chapter calendars and the fact that 37 were printed and aside from a file copy and one gift, 34 have been sold and only one remaining in inventory. Jack raised the issue of invited guests that were unable to attend, and the use of personalized gifts that had been prepared for them. It was suggested that Jack take the gifts to the next ACBS meeting and deliver them to the guests, and we re-consider individual gifts that can not be re-cycled. Jeremy reported on the clothing problems and indicated that he had some items in his vehicle for delivery, and that we will not be doing business with this vendor again. Walt reported that he has a number of vendors, and would be able to report on the progress at a coming meeting. A discussion followed concerning the venue of the annual meeting. It was suggested that Jeremy obtain some information on locations and possible dates, and report back to the Board in the future. A discussion also follower concerning the possible locations of the monthly Board meetings, since apparently Demitri’s restaurant in Parma is closed. Bill Hunter reported on the coming IX show. A schedule of worker times was passed around and confirmed. Move in arrangements were discussed. Doug Brooks was congratulated on the fine work on the pedestrian ramps that he built to give spectators a better view of the inside of the boats. Bill requested that members save and bring old editions of the Rudder Magazine to give to interested persons. He also asked that booth workers mingle with the spectators and discuss the Chapter activities and the boats, and ask that the visitors vote for a “peoples” choice boat. It was suggested that business cards be prepared with contact information on them, so that interested persons may follow-up after the show ends. Bud Long will check to see if he has a program to print such cards. Jeremy gave out a list of assignments for individuals to write stories for coming Beacon editions. A discussion followed on the possibility of a ‘Youth” program and various ideas were presented. Les will check with ACBS and will determine if any of their junior judging programs or kit-boat programs will work for NCO. Vermillion Rendezvous was announced as Sunday June 10 at the City docks. A catered meal will be available and more information will be forthcoming. Bud Long reported on the plans for the Portage Lakes show. Gil asked that if anyone wished to assist in the planning of the trophy preparation, to contact him. June Prebis suggested she contact the Joint-vocational school in the area, and see if some art students wish to compete with ideas for the graphics on the awards. She will follow up and report back to the Board. Les reported that he has been contacted about presenting some wooden boats in Columbus Ohio on February 10. It is a Sports Show, and we have been invited. It was suggested that Matt Zimmerman handle it, and since he is not a member of NCO, an “honorary” membership be extended to Matt with clear instructions that it was to be NCO and not Zimmerman Boat Works and that no commercial activity take place on his part. The spring Catawba Island show in April was discussed along with the Lakeside show. More information will be forthcoming on these events. The next meeting was scheduled for February 6th, with a location to be announced. Jack indicated he would not be present, so Marilyn and Gil will take-over the secretary duties. On MOTION the meeting adjourned at 8:04pm.
Respectfully submitted Jack Lynett |
