Christmas Party in January/Annual Meeting
Options for the CBC Christmas Party/
Annual Meeting were discussed. The decision was made to hold the event at the
Warehouse of Randy Lawson on January 15, 2005. Resources for set-up and clean
up will be explored. The Board agreed to pay for these services (within
reason), as there are no charges for the use of this facility.
Nominating Committee
David Blackwell agreed to coordinate
the Nominating Committee. Suggestions were made for members who might be willing
to serve. David will contact them and coordinate this. Tentative plans are for
the Committee to have a roster of nominees by December, so the election may be
held at the Annual Meeting in January.
Bylaws Committee Report
The Bylaws committee gave a report.
Most recent edition of Bylaws was reviewed and prepared for Club vote at
November Club Meeting. Additional costs for 501c3 application were discussed
($625.00). The club will be asked to vote on approval of this expenditure.
It was made clear that additional
funds may be needed if 501C3 application is denied.
Incorporation has been filed;
response anticipated in 2-3 weeks.
The Club will be asked to approve the

A Donation to Santa For All Seasons to purchase Bicycles for children in need

meeting for approval.
