[K3pzn-board] CCARC Bored Meeting

Wed Mar 10 13:44:55 EST 2010

Yes, we missed you, Andy, but we also 
understand your human constraints.  
(You ARE human, aren't you?)  

Is everybody on this list yet, as a 
result of the recent elections?  (We 
might be missing Tom Wimsatt and ???.) 

Bad me!  I failed to note the changes 
of who fell off vs. who fell on.  We 
will miss those who fell off.  Maybe 
a handover dinner is in order?  (Hint.)  

Yes, I have the list from Tony that I 
must process.  Was talking about it 
with Curt outside the club station after 
Monday's great meeting.  Tony's items 
are indeed good and honorable and should 
be addressed, line by line.  I will 
start the process as promised.  (Just a 
little later that first desired.)  And 
all this will meld into what Curt wrote 
about priorities, club procedure and 
brainstorming.  

Is the field day chairman candidate the 
new BILL member?  I met him (or re-met 
him) earlier in the day on Monday while 
getting coffee in Howard County on the 
way to work!  I don't remember Bill's 
last name or callsign, the member with 
the new mobile Yaesu transceiver for 
his camper.  This is good news.  

Thanks,

Pat Kilroy, N8PK

I'm good for Wed (provided I don't have another couch meltdown like happened Monday - I got off the phone/email with work at 6:30ish and sat down to clear my head before heading out to the meeting ... woke up at about 3AM...). Which brings me to my appology for missing Monday nite. 

In other news I'm out of town a lot in the next 2 months for work so I'll be a bit scarse:  3/24 - 4/1; 4/5 - 4/10; 4/21 - 5/6. Somehow I ended up fielding 2 systems instead of 1 this spring. 

I did however manage to locate us a field day chairman.. and possibly the boy scouts are interested in it as well. Stay tuned. 

Andy

I am good for next Wednesday -- last year my small group (church related) met every other week on Wednesday - and often they would coincide with our club's formula (week after club regular meeting).  but this has now moved to Tuesdays ... and my church's music stuff is on Thursday ... 

I sense we should set some PRIORITIES for the upcoming year - things we must do, and some goals (things we could do and we could aim for).  

I can imagine FD, SET, energizing our new members, re-acquiring some of our old members, having a vital program that draws members/visitors, maintaining our hardware resources in working order as priorities.  

Goals - we can brain storm on, including describing the club we want to strive for - but it will need input from members.

Hey!  New Administration!  

Can everybody get together a week from 
tonight as scheduled?  

If not, I am open to an alternate day/ 
date/time for our March meeting.  Next 
Wednesday is ALSO St. Patrick's Day.  
I need to scour Carroll County for a 
hot corn beef sandwich and a tall cold 
green beer.  

Truth is, I also have something that just 
got scheduled for the next three Wednesday 
evenings after this week.  Only a one- 
shot deal.  (Well, I guess a three-shot 
deal, really.)  I will have choir/band 
rehearsal on those nights in prep for 
Easter and if I miss any I will be 
eternally banished.  How forgiving! ;-) 

Thoughts?  

Cheers,
