President Haws then opened the floor for discussion of sponsors for our tournaments.  Much discussion and points of interest were made.  The discussion was tabled and put to a committee of Ed Witten, Frank Brough, and our Executive Board.

Bob Streightiff advised Barney Poston needs to know what to do with our website's domain name.  Directors voted to let Barney handle this as he sees fit.

Pairings Coordinator, Bob Streightiff, advised once again how important it is to sign up for Directors Meetings as soon as possible and notify him if you cannot attend.  Please do not call up and ask to play at the last minute.  Don’t show up at a meeting that you have not signed up for and expect to play.  We need an accurate head count for lunch and golf.  Remember, guests are welcome, but we need their handicap index when they are signed up.  Bob thanks you in advance.

Respectfully Submitted,

Jim Edwards
