7 October 2003
ASDC

Call to Order:

The meeting was called to order at 6:15 pm by Acting President Tony Horvat. All board members were present, with the exception of outgoing Class Director Diane Butler. The agenda was approved as submitted.

Reading of Minutes:

The minutes of the September 2 board meeting were read and approved.

Treasurer's Report:

Treasurer Brian Blackwell reported that the proceeds of the fall yard sale, after expenses, were $254.35, bringing our current bank balance to $2231.00.

Other Reports:

Tony reported that the contract for rental of the ASDC facilities for the 2004 fly-in has been finalized. He also said that he has e-mailed a contract to guest caller Jerry Jestin for his approval, but has not yet received a reply.

Secretary Shannon Thomas reported that she has checked on the availability of banquet facilities at the nearby Hampton and Baymont Inns, and that they have none.

Outreach Coordinator William Andrews reported that he had investigated the possibility of outreach activities in connection with National Coming Out Day (October 11), and that it does not appear that this would be feasible. He said he had also decided against placing an ad in the NCOD program, as he felt this would have little effect in attracting new members to the club.

William also announced that the Albuquerque Social Club has agreed to host a social dance and potluck supper on Saturday, December 6, at 7 pm.
