Sean Fleck updated us on the status of State Annual Reports & Tax fillings. All is in order and reports are again due in May. He does not anticipate any problems in getting those submitted timely.
There was much discussion about funds generating activities including a mulch project and assisting during events at Verizon and elsewhere. Discussion centered upon the need for both planners and workers if any fund raiser is to be successful. There was further discussion about whether it would be beneficial for the Home Corp. to also conduct fund raisers. It was agreed that the Home Corp. wishes at all time to avoid any conflict with the Council and to make certain that this is known to all.
The fund raiser discussion lead into a somewhat lengthy discussion that, in any event, it is critical to immediately begin strategic planning and development of concrete plans for alternative facilities for the conduct of our business. A Facility Planning Committee was formed and includes: Steven Bailey, Mark Collis and Paul Viemann. They will report their initial findings to the Council at the March Business meeting and a more detailed report is anticipated in time for the April business meeting.
- New Business: The election of officers for 2007 was conducted and resulted in David Reitz, Paul Viemann, Craig Zimmerman and Monty Woolsey again being elected to the positions of President, Vice-President, Treasurer and Secretary, respectively. Congratulations!
