Minutes of the Executive Officers’ Meeting

8/3/05 at the House of Lords restaurant, Canterbury Inn.

Present: Erin Flowers, Todd Burzynski, Heather Clark, John Huntley, Jana Brumbaugh, Dave Steinman, Bill Budelier

Meeting called to order by Commodore Erin Flowers at 6:30.

A. Minutes from the “emergency” Exec. meeting of 6/11 and the regular Exec. meeting of 7/6 adopted by acclimation. Hereafter, Huntley will ask Clark to archive minutes on the Club’s web site.

B. Old business

1. Draft of a motion to clarify relationships between the ISC and MCSA and between “undergraduate racing team members” and other members of the ISC was discussed. Moved (Huntley/Clark) to change the effective date from the start of the Fall 2005 sailing season to the election and installation of the 2006 Executive Officers of the Iowa Sailing Club.

The motion as amended will be brought to the floor at the first Wednesday evening ISC meeting to be held on 7/24/05 in the Purdue Room, #341 IMU, starting at 7:00. Commodore Lindsey Schneider will chair the meeting.

2. Rules review and rules test. Erin circulated a proposed list of additional rules (chiefly from DNR boating regulations) and a revised rules test for discussion. No formal action was taken to amend or adopt.

3. Fortieth Anniversary Reunion report. It’s difficult at this time to make a full report since records have not yet been returned to the Commodore or Treasurer. Post-Reunion Scuttlebutt—Huntley will try to find an editor for this issue. Burgees that were ordered have yet to arrive and then be mailed to individuals—the Secretary offered to help in this effort.

4. Treasurer’s report: Todd presented a cash flow report for the ISC covering the period from 5/12005 through 8/3/2005.

Jana Brumbaugh reported the receipt of $1175 from the sale of the E-Scow which has been purchased without trailer. A second E-Scow sits on a trailer that must be taken to Kennedy Marine for refurbishing before it and its boat can be sold.

5. Purchasing priorities for the ISC. Erin circulated a check list of purchasing goals (2 new FJs, sails, & equipment as needed; boat rotation; dollies; tug) and asked members to priorities the list and return the form.

C. New business.

1. The problems arising from a key to the restroom in the social center seems to be resolved. The agenda item “Intro/discussion of possible new sign-out book/procedure” was neither raised nor discussed.

2. US Sailing membership materials on the agenda was neither raised nor discussed. Nor was the matter relating to “volunteers for insurance paperwork.”

D. Announcements

1. Club trips and outreach: A Laser regatta at Okoboji on 9/23-24 was approved. Also approved, inviting the North Arm club to our August 13^th regatta.
