The President called the meeting to order at 7:34 pm. Present were Garett N9HXR, Kevin Grant, Don KC9ZMY, Sam KD9BRW, and Joe KE9CMR. He asked if everyone had a chance to review the agenda for the meeting.
Next order of business was the minutes of the last board meeting. Joe KE9CMR made a motion to accept as read, Sam KD9BRW seconded the motion. The minutes will stand.
Next there was discussion on Caelan’s prototypes for the club logo. Five members voted to approve the latest version to Discord for members to review before a vote to be held at the next membership meeting in June.
More talk about Field Day, potentially being held at PS1 using temporary antenna or antennae on the roof. Books, our PS1 liaison was excited about this happening.
The talk then turned to VEs. One new discord member, KW9U, is a VE affiliated with the Anchorage Club (KL7AA VEC). We hope he will consider joining us as a VE.
Having elected Kevin Grant as our treasurer, we will now be able to open a bank account and start collecting dues and use the money for some of our projects. Garett N9HXR and Kevin will get together and open an account at Wintrust. We will accept Venmo, Zelle, possibly PayPal, and of course checks and cash.
Under new business, we decided to send out a notice that we would prorate dues through June 30th only.
The Secretary has been having people sign in at the in-person meetings, so he will be sending
emails to those who only made one or two meetings to see if he can renew interest.
The next Membership meeting is scheduled for June 2 2025 and the next board meeting is
scheduled for June 17 2025. Garett N9HXR asked if there was anything else to discuss and
there being nothing he asked for a motion to adjourn. Sam KD9BRW made the motion, and
Don KC9ZMY seconded the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 8:09 pm
Respectfully
Joseph P Murphy Jr KE9CMR
