Sunlife Business Meeting Minutes

19 October 2020

Meeting held over the internet via Zoom provided by Doc Cunningham and called to order at 1305 by President Sue Rogers.

 

Health and Welfare Diane is home—they are looking for a good care facility for temporary care for rehab. Jim Steinmetz' Grandson rolled SUV, totaled the vehicle, but is doing well—minor bumps and bruises.

 

Minutes of previous business meeting (20 April) read and approved as read.

 

Treasurer's Report-- Current Bank Balance $2347.71, petty cash $201.99, education fund $1286.90, expenses paid $191.14 for website. Moved and seconded to approve report as read. Motion carried.

 

Old Business – None

 

New Business – We will continue to meet via ZOOM through January 2021 and maintain contact with Greenfield Village to see when if we can resume in person meetings in their facility.

 

Dues are still $10./year and include spouse. Dues can be handed to Sue or Chuck if seen in person (i.e. at the park on Thursday) or mail to Sue. 110 people on the roster, very few are visiting the website or paying dues. When you do pay please update your personal information on the website or on the roster that will be available if you pay in person. Doc suggested that reminders be sent out via the club website.

 

Christmas party—scheduled for December 13 at Organ Stop Pizza. They have very good Covid-19 protection in place. Table seating is separated, you sanitize hands and don gloves to pick up spatula to pick up pizza. Menu is all u can eat salad and pizza (several kinds). The total cost is $9.25 so we are asking those who attend to pay $6 and the club will pay the additional $3.25 instead of buying the meat for the Christmas Party as we have done in the past. Is appropriate to bring guests.

 

Motion by Jim Steinmetz to authorize expenditure of $3.25 subsidy of entrance fee for all club attendees and their guests at the Christmas Party. Seconded by Frank Mossett. Motion passes.

 

Jim Steinmetz offers kudos to Doc for providing Zoom and the Chuck,Sue, and Bob and Laura for licensing Hams.
