EVERETT UNIT 437 BOARD MEETING OF 5/08/2019

The meeting was called to order by President JoAnn Smith at 6:20pm. Present were JoAnn Smith, Turid Fredrickson, Marla Patterson, Sharon Erwin, Dave Fallen, Cliff Marx, and Ernie Staudt.

MINUTES:
Minutes, with a couple of admin corrections, were confirmed approved as per electronic approval. Dave has posted them on the website.

OLD BUSINESS:

SECTIONAL: Final financials show a profit of $389.84. See attachment.

SUNDAY game has averaged 2 ½ tables so far.
Need more time. Too much stop and go. Question arose about Mother’s Day game. At least two tables have said they are coming. Best estimate is that we are losing about $20 per week.
Need more publicity. Announcements and flyers have been out, but we all need to talk it up whenever we are playing elsewhere. Need more push to Unit members, we have over 130 members in the unit and only about 20 are playing at our games……
Wayne doing a little better; still seems technology challenged. Jenni Carmichael has said she might be able to fill in some times.
Marla will bring a calendar to sign up for attendance and treats.

CHARITIES: Discussed previous donations and our financial situation. Motion was made and approved to give to the following charities:
Cocoon House $200
Assistance League $200
Habit for Humanity $200

NEW BUSINESS:

Jo brought up an unpleasant encounter with another member. She will address this incident with them privately, but these issues need to be addressed on the spot and by calling the Director. We cannot hope to get everyone on board with Zero Tolerance, unless we set the example. We will also remind everyone of the ZT policy at the start of every game.
Need to replace Jack Erickson as the Disciplinary Chair.
.

Meeting adjourned at 6:50pm. Next meeting TBD.


Respectfully submitted,


MARLA PATTERSON
SECRETARY
