Current Board of Directors:

Officers:

President - Keith Baker
Vice Pres - Joe Minella
Treasurer - Brian Paschal
Secretary - Laura Karshis

Executive Committee:

Ruben Campos
John Arick
Carlos Molina


It's time to start thinking about year-end business. We are now accepting nominations for officers for 2009. Nominations will be open until November 30th. Nominations will not be accepted from the floor at the meeting.

All current board members are eligible for reelection, assuming they want to run again. If you would like to run for office, PM me, email me, or see me at a Sunday mini.

I am thinking about a cookout/annual meeting in December, possibly in conjuction with the final bag tag challenge. More on that event will be coming soon.

If you want to know more about how the club is structured, see our Charter on lodga.com under Club Info.

We exist to support and promote the sport of disc golf. If you would like to be part of that, we welcome you.

3C is looking to get more organization. Would you folks care to share your wealth of knowledge?

Sure. I recommend you start by looking at our Charter and Articles of Association on the lodga website (see Club Info). They were pieced together from charters of very successful clubs across the country. Those two documents define how the club will function.

Put together a charter that works for you, then get it ratified by your members. Identify the individuals who can lead the movement. Hold elections, and off you go.

Good luck and feel free to PM me if I can help in any way.

Dont Forget, Just two weeks left to throw your hat into the ring for elections to 2009 Board of Directors.

If you want to help lead LODGA in 2009, this is your chance.

We are not big on meetings, we would rather be playing. So we keep meetings to a minimum. This is not really a huge time commitment. Three or four meetings a year to plan out the coming season. If you've got ideas and energy, run for office!

When is the best time for me as a club member to asking questions about the club?

Thanks James for your willingness to step up.

The best time for questions and input would be the year-end meeting which is not yet scheduled, but will take place in December or January. Once we have a date, I will post it here.

Updog,

How about a brief description of the duties of the various positions:
President, Vice Pres, Treasurer, Secretary, Executive Committee.

That way people would have a better idea of what they might be getting themselves into.

Good idea.

All that is spelled out in the Charter - Bylaws Six and Eight.

Great turnout tonight, thanks everyone who took the time to come. Board members elected for 2009:

President Keith Baker
Vice President/Treasurer Brian Paschal
Secretary Laura Karshis

Executive Committee: James Pellman, Corey Peschke, and Paul Taylor

Paul was elected in spite of the fact that he missed the meeting because the greeter did not tell him where we were. He thought he was at the wrong place, so he left. Nice try, but he cannot get out of it that easily.

Also thanks to outgoing committee members John Arick, Carlos Molina, Ruben Campos, and VP Joe Minella for their service.

Looking forward to a great year in '09.

New members $20, Renewing members $15. Membership form is on lodga.com. Mailing in your form is probably best.

New members will receive a club shirt and bag tag.

For 2009 Only, renewing members will also receive both shirt and bag tag. In future years, it will just be a bag tag.

(Shirts and bag tags are not printed yet, but soon!)
