Highlights from the General Membership Meeting on September 19, 2009
- Board members updated the membership on their activities and responsibilities.
- Members approved a change to the bylaws (Article II. MEMBERS, Section §II.03 Types of Memberships) that allows married couples (alumni) who have let their membership lapse to come back to SRC. The application process would remain the same: submit an application and be approved by the board. Dues are $40 per couple; $7 per person to attend the dances.
- Deana updated members on the Holiday Dance progress. If 165 tickets are sold, the club will cover expenses and see a profit.
- Bill explained that some of the decorations from the 2009 Holiday Dance cannot be accounted for; it has been a source of great frustration and animosity. Bill stated that the club has inventoried and documented all the decorations we do have. He asked for a motion to accept the current inventory and put this issue behind us. Lynn moved, Cathy seconded, to accept the current inventory and move forward. All members approved.
- Bill explained a change to the bylaws he is working on for the January membership meeting. The change would replace the dance director position with a three-person committee. The board will approve
- Bill clarified what “excessive amount” referred to in relation to the amount of alcohol some people bring to the dances.
