A meeting of the Club and Foundation boards was held at the Weed Boulevard Subway on July 20. Major points of discussion were: 1. The Carnevale net income this year was $3,806 which compares favorably with last year's $3,850. 2. Manning for Carnevale was very disappointing, with a poor showing from about 8 or 9 Club members who dodged their responsibility to serve. As a result, several members had to work three or four shifts which is definitely not fair. Steps will be taken to insure that the upcoming Fair does not face the same problem with manning. These corrective actions will be discussed at upcoming club meetings. Thanks to Todd for a great job with a difficult Carnevale schedule. 3. The spending plans for the Club and the Foundation for this year were discussed at length. It was decided that as new needs to serve the Community are identified and approved by the board, funds will be reshuffled from other areas of spending and applied to the new efforts as we have always done in the past. The spending plans for the 2010-2011 fiscal year were approved. 4. Approved Jon Lopey as a new member. 5. The District 5160 Governor will visit the club at the July 29 lunch meeting. Everyone please attend. 6. Approved a donation from the Foundation of $7 per member for the Governor's dictionary project to Africa as a Foundation budget expense. Individual members who have already paid $7 for this project will receive a refund of their donations. 7. Fair shift sign-ups will begin with the July 22 meeting. 8. Mike Solano will investigate the installation costs of a permanent air-conditioner on the roof of the Rotomobile. The small unit that he loaned the club for use during Carnevale made a big difference in comfort when working in the heat. Thanks Mike. 9. If you would like copies of the 2 spending plans for this year, please let me know via Email, and I will Email copies to you.
