Business
1. Cal gave us an update on
where we are with the Race wrap
up and how he has reached out to
at least one other race
management company and expects
to talk to several more before
negotiation of the final bill
with Charm City. Hopefully,
final race figures will be
available soon.
2. The dictionary project was
discussed on a limited basis. We
are looking for potential
sponsors to help offset the cost
of the dictionaries since
Huntington has backed out
completely at this point.
3. Brent mentioned expansion of
the dictionary project to our
friends in Bani who have
expressed interest
4. There is no update on the
potential merger with the
evening club but several of
their members will be at the
evening meeting on December 2,
at Rolling Road @ 6PM. Please
RSVP to Joe Loverde if you have
not already. It should be a fun
evening. Joe and Cindy have
offered to cover the cost of
this event but the club will
reimburse them for the members
of our club who attend.
5. Richard gave us an update on
the tree canopy project and
mentioned that they are looking
for a 501 (C) (3) to run it
through. After some discussion,
Susan made a motion that was
seconded by me for a vote to
have our foundation act in that
capacity. Once Larry left, a
vote was taken and the motion
passed. Richard will give us a
full presentation soon but the
plantings will occur in the
Spring of 2010.
Doug was the big winner of the
50/50 today.
We had 12 members in attendance.
Please remember, there is NO
MEETING next week because of
Thanksgiving. The next meeting
is the evening event at rolling
Road at 6PM.
See you all then.
