Unit 484 November 13 Minutes
Agnes Corns, Bob Fox, Addie Greene, Jerry
Kenefick, Ellie Mitchell, and Kemble Yates attended. Audrey
Green and Becca Ostrom were absent.
The October 9 minutes were accepted.
TREASURER’S REPORT
The unit’s balance is $14,854.61. The Memorial game earned $532
in table fees (minus the director’s charge of $100). The
treasurer’s report was accepted.
PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Bob purchased a new computer and printer. Jerry asked that a
mouse and data stick also be purchased.
GNT qualifiers must be held prior to April. Bob will speak to
Bernadine Lacy and Leah McKechnie about holding qualifiers.
The Great Western STaC will be December 8-14. The board voted
unanimously to make the unit’s December 11 game a STaC game.
OLD BUSINESS
The board voted unanimously to suspend
indefinitely the Thursday night game (except for the second
Thursday unit championship game). I suggested that we wait until
spring, when Jerry’s Easybridge! class
is finished, and try to fold his students into a unit game. Bob
suggested that we need 20 signatures from players requesting a
unit game before we reschedule. Agnes pointed out that 20
players is only five tables, and all
of those people might not show up: We need interest from more
than 20 players to reschedule. Someone else suggested that we
change the game to a weekend day; the question was, is a playing
site available? Kemble will contact
Scottish Rite to say we are vacating
on Thursday nights. I will email Ed Miller and Molly Tinsley to
tell them the game has been suspended.
Jerry has 14 people interested in taking Easybridge! Bob’s new
class will begin December 8 or 15.
NEW BUSINESS
The unit’s holiday party will be December 11. Bob will ask the
McKechnies if they’ll provide turkey. If not, Agnes volunteered.
I said I’d bring salad or dessert.
I will bring the unit coffee pot that’s been in my closet since
2001 to bridge next week. Jerry moved that if that coffee pot
doesn’t work or isn’t large enough, that we buy a 100-cup pot.
Amazon has them for $120. Overstocks.com also has them. The
motion carried.
Bob will remind club owners to post their results by the tenth
of the following month (an ACBL requirement).
The next meeting will be December 11 at the
Masonic Lodge.
Respectfully submitted,
Addie Greene, secretary
