Committee Reports
Finance: Dave passed out a revenue and expense
report year-to-date. Revenue is up due to increased membership.
About a dozen ice ads remain unpaid. Dave asked for a copy of
all who have paid dues to cross check with all who are curling
in leagues. He said that expenses are nothing out of the ordinary.
A motion to approve the financial report was made by Dave Chandler.
The motion was seconded by Keith. The motion carried.
Bar:
Juniors: Kent Bahr gave the report. He reported
that because the bonspiel was in December and jackets have been
ordered most of the yearly expenses have been incurred. The bonspiel
had 9 out-of-town teams out of a total of 21 teams. The event
was considered to be a success. Terry Matson told Kent that the
program was set up to receive the donation from Coke. Sunday night
league has approximately 65 curlers. Rob asked if the junior committee
had met recently.
The meeting was to be January 11th. The fish fry will be February
11th. The Eagles club has donated $500 to go towards the food.
President’s Report:
General Manager’s Report: Rob gave the
report for Bob. He has enough help for the club playdowns. Planning
for the Scots Tour is going well. The club pins have arrived.
Dave Chandler will be the board representative in charge of the
club pins. Walker is trying to get arena ice for their curling
club. Otto Ringle has contacted Bob for advice.
Old Business: Rob looked into the prospect
of “glow curling”. Northern Lights FX will rent us
the equipment for $50. Rob suggested a $5 entry fee to participate.
The event would likely have to take place on a Friday night. We
would be responsible for installing and removing the equipment.
We will consult with Bob about ice availability and set up.
Mike Schmitt has ordered the vents for the lobby restrooms and
will install them when they come in.
Dave Lundberg suggested we hold the 40th anniversary celebration
at the same time as the fall open house in order to allow time
for planning.
Rob was contacted by the Alternative Learning Center for use
of the ice during the week of January 15th.
Bob Fenson asked Keith to request board support for enforcement
of the no alcohol policy in the lobby area of the club. The board
will support Bob in the enforcement of the no alcohol policy in
the lobby area of the club.
New Business:
Adjournment: A motion to adjourn was
made by Mark S. The motion was seconded by Randy. The motion carried.
Respectfully submitted,
Mark LaFond
