[Rdxa-bod] FW: FW: Reminder - November board meeting minutes

Sun Jan 8 07:50:15 CST 2012

In case you have forgotten, here is another copy of the November BOD meeting minutes.

And what I see as action items below.

If we have a BOD meeting this week ????? We need to go over some action items.  

 The last time I sent this, (December 7th) I asked what was highlighted in Yellow (below)

And I have not seen any replies.

>From my point of view, not much is getting done.

If we have a meeting, I will be bringing up the accountability issue – AGAIN !!

Paul K2DB

Action Items:

News Letters: 

Paul enquired about the status of the newsletter. Mark will follow up.

Scott mentioned that 2010 new letters may be missing.  The group viewed the website and determined all that were published are on the web but out of date order. Action: Scott will fix the order. 

W2RDX Call sign usage/QSO verification:

Need to address the follow up for logging valid contacts that have been made. Chris suggested that we provide a means for contacts to be logged on the website and then forward them in bulk to the Log Book of the World by Chris. Action: Scott to investigate. 

NYQP:

Irv raised that one award mailed in April was returned to us for incorrect address on 9/12, NW2C. Action: Brent will contact the trustee to seek a valid address.

PayPal:

Scott will put PayPal and set it up as a donation – no fee for donations. Scott reported that these are not showing up as donation buttons so there is a loss of 3% per transaction. Scott will work with Irv to address this issue with PayPal.

Data and service account disaster management:

Data/backup repository for all pertinent accounts/passwords should be investigated. Mark suggested that a board of directors “cloud” be created. Action: Scott to investigate and approach and report back to the board.

Appointed position – follow through:

Volunteers should be cognizant of their commitments and seek to ensure the job function is covered. Reports should be provided by position chairman for board meeting and general membership meetings, as appropriate, in the event of absence. 

The board discussed the need to have the complete and accurate board member list, it was determined that the following people are members of the board based on the June meeting:

Doug N2BEG, Lynn W2BSN, Scott K2ZS, Andrew N3LZG, Bill K2TER, Paul K2DB, Larry W2LB,  Brent KC2QLJ, Mark K2MTH

Action Scott will update the club information page to reflect these members.

Free membership for presenters:

Board has decided to present a letter of appreciation along with a complementary membership for those who have provide significant presentations. It was decided that the membership chairman shall mail the presenter a letter of thanks and convey the free membership. Chris has taken an action to draft the form letter that would accompany the free membership. 

Andy Flowers needs to receive this communication.

Meeting was adjourned at 9:40 PM.

Action: Paul to contact Andy.

Brent raised that John W3OAB should be presented with a free membership at the general meeting he is presenting at.

Lynn raised the issue that the NYQP logo should be copyrighted. Action: Mark to discuss with Anmari Linardi. This was finished and OK’d

New Business:

The big key - Paul (K2DB) mentioned that the key was presented to be passed on a monthly basis. The key is being held on to due to confusion about its purpose. Scott proposed that the board decide the key’s next recipient for the month. 

Action: Paul K2FX will communicate that the board will take over the ownership of the key.

It is the decision of the board that Joe K8FC be awarded the big key for his anticipatory CQing for the CW Sweepstakes contest.

Subject: [Rdxa-bod] Reminder - November board meeting minutes

Seeing that we have no BOD meeting scheduled for December, I thought it would be a good idea to redistribute this November BOD meeting minutes attachment.

It seems that some members have NOT followed through yet with their action items from the meeting.

So, for the BOD and the good of the club, I am asking this, please read the minutes, and take care of any of your action items, then please report back to this distribution list when you have completed your action items.

If you cannot do this, please let us know, so that someone else can take care of them.

It seems like we have a meeting, things get put down in black and white, and that’s it, nothing gets done, then at the next meeting, it’s brought up again and again and again, with no action taken.

For the good of RDXA and its members, we need to lead by example, so let’s get out there and lead !!

If you have an action item, please take care of it.

Paul K2DB
