Unit 216 Board Meeting
Monday, October 28, 2024 10:30AM
Attendance: Faith Garnaas, Leslie Heimbach, Carolyn Miller, Tom Olsson, Carolyn Sabroske
Minutes from Previous Meeting: Approved and posted on website prior to meeting.
Treasurer’s Report: Carolyn Miller shared current bank statements. She also indicated that fees were still coming in for the Mentor Games, but attendance was good (47 tables) and there might be a small profit when all is settled.
Old Business:
- Annual Meeting: To be held 11/2 with a short business meeting and unit elections. The ballot box is out and there is a sign on the door to encourage voting. 11:30AM lunch provided by the board and free noon game (0-500, and open). Carolyn will briefly update the membership and remind about the Regional we are hosting next June.
- Holiday Party: To be held 12/7 with a potluck lunch at 11:30AM and free noon game (0-500, and open).
- Winter Festival Sectional: Carolyn has confirmed with ACBL that our new dates are 1/24-25/25. Nancy is working on the flier.
New Business:
- Tom requested that we work on updating the phone directory on the website. Carolyn has been editing the list in conjunction with the ACBL list.
- There was a question about hosting a Stars of Tomorrow Sectional next August after the Regional in June. In years’ past when we hold the Regional, we have not hosted a Stars of Tomorrow. There was a consensus that it is relatively well-attended and we should consider it. Carolyn will check with ACBL for confirmation of August dates, and if approved, Leslie will chair.
- Tonight begins a new game to be held on Monday evenings at 6:30PM. It will be directed by Jay Winter and open for players 0-750. Thank you Jay!
- April Sectional: There was discussion about whether to host the Sectional Friday and Saturday, or possibly include Sunday as well. It was agreed that Sunday afternoon could be added, and that it would be a regular partnership game (not Swiss Teams format).
Adjournment & Next Meeting:
We will meet again Monday, January 13, 2025 at 10:30AM. This meeting was adjourned at 11:10AM.
