Membership Report:
Three (3) Applications for membership were submitted and reviewed during this meeting. After the meeting the executive board met and all three (3) were approved.
Raising the dues was brought up.
A Motion was made to have a $10 Accessment per member effective next year when collecting dues. After some discussion this motion was withdrawen and a motion was made to RAISE dues by $5 effective next year. This requires a constitutional change so that it will have be posted at lease 30 days before and be voted on at the next membership meeting in March. This was seconded and accepted by all.
A motion was made stating that any new aplicants for membership must have one sponsor show up at their approval meeting (usually the next meeting after they fill out the application) and if they are approved they themselves must attend one club meeting before they officially become a member. This motion was seconded and passed by majority.
A motion was made to allow anyone who came in late this year to vote (because there is no rule in writing against this) but from now on if a member isn’t here by the reading of the minutes he will not be allowed to attend the meeting. This motion was seconded and passed with one opposed.
