OLD BUSINESS:

1. Outstanding minutes were approved as distributed.

2. Ernie Staudt and Gail Fraser have accepted the appointments to fill the two board member vacancies. They were unanimously approved.

NEW BUSINESS:

  1. We reviewed the issue of electronic and proxy voting:

  1. We believe both are possible as we are a private organization, but it will require amending the bylaws to include such things.

  2. We believe we can have a proposal ready for this year’s annual meeting in Dec.

  3. We reiterated that we need to send postcard notices to those who don’t have email to announce the Christmas Party, since it is also our annual meeting.

  1. No game the 4th of July.

  1. Lynnwood Assisted Living Center has invited us to start a game there and there has been some interest from the Everett Senior Center. We are agreed that we do not want to encourage non-sanctioned games, but would continue to pursue those places that want a sanctioned game. The issue is director availability.

  1. Sectional is on track and ready to go.

  1. 9 DEC is Christmas Party.

  1. Ernie will handle the Partnership issues for the sectional and the club.
