Minutes of Desert Circle ARC
held
February 1, 2008
A meeting of the Desert Circle Amateur Radio Club was held
at The Magic
Circle at 10:00 AM on February 1, 2008. Members
present
were Al Oxton, Tom Hensley, Sue Hensley, Damon Lewis, Cliff
Haycock and
Virginia Haycock. The meeting was called to order by
Virginia
Haycock.
Virginia suggested that in order to be an operating club, we
should
elect officers and start formulating rules of
operation. A short
discussion followed with all members in agreement to those
suggestions.
Motion to nominate Al Oxton as President was made by
Virginia Haycock
and seconded by Sue Hensley. No other nominations were made
and Al was
elected by unanimous vote.
Meeting was turned over to Al Oxton, President.
Motion to make two years the length of term of office was
made by Tom
Hensley and seconded by Virginia Haycock. Motion was
carried by
unanimous vote.
Motion to nominate Virginia Haycock as Recording Secretary
was made by
Al Oxton and seconded by Tom Hensley. No other
nominations were
made and Virginia was elected by unanimous vote.
General discussion followed about how often to meet and
where. It
was felt that we would have one meeting a year in Quartzsite
at either
Magic Circle or Quartzfest. Because our members tend
to travel to
different locations throughout the year, it is difficult to
have
meetings more often.
President Oxton will contact all known radio operators who
have
expressed interest in being members of Desert Circle
ARC. We
discussed a dues structure, but decided to not ask for any
dues at
present. If the need for funds arises, we will contact
members at
that time.
Al Oxton, President, plans to use the club call, NU7DE, on
Field Day
2008 and during Nude Recreation Week in 2008. Club
members agreed
that Al should use the call sign during this year.
There was no further business to discuss and the meeting was
adjourned.
