MINUTES of 7/8/2000- Mike, AH7R

The meeting started at 09:40 HST at the visitor's center of Ho'omaulahia Botanical Park, called to order by president Walt Niemczura, AH6OZ.

The meeting began with introductions. Jan, WH7Y, was voted as a new member of the club.

Lee Wical indicated he would prefer not to be the official program chairman. After discussion it was decided that the club at large would be the program committee. An email list would be established were anyone could suggest a program and a speaker and it could be discussed and settled. Plans continue to call for a speaker every other meeting. Thus allowing for testing the meetings we do not have a speaker.

Al, our new treasurer had no report yet. He is still sorting documents and money. However we did get renewals from several members.

Len was voted Ham of the Year at the last meeting for his long term contribution to the club. The appropriate form of recognition was discussed.

Jerry gave a report as Field Day Chairman. Our score is twice what it was last year. We went over many of the improvements this year which worked out well.

The video made at field day was shown an narrated by Mike Burger AH7R. It covered much of the same material as Jerry's report.

A web page has been prepared on the field day operation at www.pilikia.net/karc/FD2000/fdpic1.html
