The meeting was called to order by President Tyson at 7:15 this evening. Tonight was to be mostly a club business meeting with an election of new officers.
This evening
we had 15 members and guest in attendance.
The planned
program for this evening was a round table of fly tying, after our business at
hand session.
First item
discussed this evening was that Jacobi's Café will be raising their room use rate from $15 to $40
per night with or without meals and beverage. It was decided that we will
immediately begin looking for a new location for meetings in our future.
February 13th meeting is planned to be held at Jacobi's Café but, be watchful for the club’s change of address thereafter.

Next item of
discussion was 2013 club membership dues are due. Again our annual rates are
$15 for individuals and $20 for full family membership.
Following
this item, it was discussed the email that Tyson had sent to the current club
officers recapping his two years in office and projecting what he felt were possibilities
for our future. This discussion fanned out into many venues of where and how
the club should consider moving.
Items discussed:
Items discussed:

From this
point, Tyson brought up the matter of the club officers’ election to be
conducted during this meeting. It was stated and Tom Craig would be willing to
stay on as V. President, Doug Coe would be willing to stay on as Treasurer, and
Dale McKain would be willing to stay on as Secretary, Tyson stated he wanted to
relinquish the Presidency after his two years of service. A few words of
appreciation and a round of applause followed on behalf of Tyson. The floor was
then opened for the nomination for a new president. No one stepped forward.
After a round of discussion, Tom came forward and said that he would take the
President’s post, with the help of the club and a new VP. At that point Dave
Stemmer came forward and said he would be available for the post of V.
President. So with this slate of officers the motion was made the floor be
closed for nomination and a vote to be cast to elect the above mentioned to
fill the posts of club officers. It was so done.
New club officers are:

After the
election it was discussed to provide Diane Briggs the funds to buy fly hooks as
she is supplying flies for the Casting
for Recovery project; an organization that aids women and men with their
recovery of breast cancer. A vote was made and approved to have Diane buy the
hooks needed and bill the club via invoice to Doug Coe.
As we began to wrap up club business, it was realized that there would be no time for fly tying, so the meeting was adjourned at 8:30.
Respectfully submitted,
