Old Business:

 

            The previously approved 2007 Schedule was reviewed and Kansas Sea Base added on August 17, 18 & 19.

 

            The previously published budget was reviewed and approved without change.

 

            The Commodore presented the 2007 insurance package and the same was approved.

 

            There was a discussion of the purpose of the Newsletter.  With most of the club’s information being sent by timely e-mail it was agreed that most of the newsletter should be devoted to photojournalism with an emphasis on club members.

 

            There was a review of the KSU Sailing Club dues.  The dues shall be one membership fee, one mooring and parking place at the regular fees and each additional parking place at $35.00.

 

New Business:

 

            It was agreed that the Secretary was authorized to spend up to $60.00 for spot adds in the Manhattan Mercury classified section to let the public know that the club exists.

 

            A request from the Kansas State Rowing Association for assistance with their April 14, 2007 Sunflower State Championship Regatta was presented.  Because the event is at the same time as the club’s workday it was felt that we could not provide a great deal of support, but the board authorized the Secretary to notify the KSRA that the club would provide the committee boat and a driver to assist at the event.

 

            There was a general discussion of the goals and objectives for infrastructure improvements at the club.  It was decided that bringing rural water service to the club grounds was the highest priority.  Jeff Hancock and Gene Lindgren were assigned the task of obtaining cost figures and reporting those costs to the board at the March board meeting.  The consideration of electrical power and restroom facilities was tabled until after the costs of rural water service has been reviewed by the board.

 

            The repairs on the main dock will commence as soon as the weather permits.

 

            The Secretary was designed the Central States Sailing Association liaison.

 

The meeting was adjourned.

 

Respectfully submitted

 

Henry Otto, Secretary
