In the absence of the president and vice president, the meeting was called to order by Linda Lemieux, Treasurer. The following members were present: Linda Lemieux, Shirley Waggoner-Eisenman, Charles Spencer, Hilton Holcomb, Becky Dus, David Barkley and Richard Boland.
Charles Spencer reported as follows:
- Sadly, Kathy Walters will be leaving the Extension at the end of November to take another position within the county complex. Without question, she will be sorely missed.
- Per request for inquiry into securing a portable toilet or golf cart for transporting members to and from the facilities in the Extension office building, there will be a cost of $660 to $700 per year for the toilet. The cart is estimated to be about $1300. After a brief discussion, the matter was tabled.
- It was decided that the meat for the holiday party would be catered rather than cooked in the Extension kitchen by Charlie this year.
- Certification letters can be signed as members come by the Master Gardener office. Members should be encouraged to pay an additional yearŐs dues at a time.
- The question was raised as to which members should be invited to the Holiday Party considering approximately 25 percent of the membership has not met the 40 hour volunteer requirement for the year.
An incomplete budget was presented by Shirley. This was followed by a very informal and inconclusive conversation about the budget for 2006. The budget will be presented to the board for further study in the January meeting and prepared for presentation to the general membership.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 10:15 A.M.
Respectfully submitted,
Richard Boland, Recording Secretary
