SUHFARS Meeting Minutes 13-Feb-2001

The Winter 2001 meeting was held at JJ Twiggs, in Lake Zurich.

The meeting was called to order at 18:55 by Skip K9SA.

Kirby reported on the treasury, which is sufficient to pay the phone bills for another year. Current membership is atabout 33 + family members, with all but 3 fully paid up for the coming year.

Skip reported that the repeater seems to be working well but still running at slightly reduced power.

A discussion on this years Field Day participation was held. It has been proposed that we conduct a joint participation with the Palatine ESDA group, this year. Since many of the Palatine group are also SUHFARS members this seemed to make a lot of sense and the general consensus was that it would be a great idea. A joint planning meeting will be held soon to consolidate plans.

The final order of business was election of officers for the coming year. 

Frank - N9QPD moved that Kirby - KA9UMJ be re-elected as treasurer. This was seconded and passed by unanimous vote.

K.C. - KG9JP moved that Mark - KG9PF be re-elected as Secretary. This was seconded and passed by unanimous vote.

John - K9IJ moved that Skip - K9SA be re-elected as Club President. This was seconded and passed by unanimous vote.

Elections concluded.

Frank - N9QPD moved that the meeting schedule be expanded to three meetings per year. This was seconded by Robbie - WA9INF,  discussed and all were in favor. It was recommended that the meeting dates be planned further in advance, to hopefully get more participation.

K9BAM was voted in as a new member of SUHFARS.

The meeting closed at 19:45.

A good time was had by all.
