Old Business:
- Constitutional Committee Report – In November Devin KD5NMX reported that the Constitutional Committee had a chance to look over the club constitution and did find some things that didn’t seem to be in keeping with the current state of the club. Some things he pointed out for future discussion included:
- The meeting schedule wording could be made more flexible with “as designated by membership” or something similar to be able to skip months where meetings may be less productive, such as during the annual picnic.
- The “shall” in “The president shall appoint committees” could be changed to “may” since there are committees that don’t get formed very often or at all.
- The meeting place of the club has changed, so the Constitution should be changed to reflect the change
- The full list of proposals was presented in the December
