The president asked the trustees to continue with the committee that looks a strategic planning for building upgrades, to put together a plan that addresses future potential improvements to the club, and to be prepared to address this with the club in January.

Old Business.   There was a question about updating the calendar with the 4H shooting on Thursdays and to ensure that any other activity that closes the club be reflected accurately.

The president asked if we were moving toward using PayPal for the payment of club dues.  The VP reported that this was the plan for the payment of dues in 2017 for the 2018 year.

There was a request for more advance notification on those times when the club is being shut down, by at least 24 hours prior.  This was followed by a question as to whether the calendar on the website constitutes the official notification as to club closings.  The VP reported that is the intent.

New Business.  There was a question about a previously discussed issue for obtaining a Small Games of Change license for the club.  The president deferred that to a future meeting, possibly in January.  Along with that the discussion for capital improvements and the website were deferred to the January 30, 2017 meeting.

It was suggested that we consider painting the floor with epoxy paint.  This was referred to the trustees to be included as a potential item for inclusion in their next report on capital improvements.

Good of the Club.  

Sound Off.  There was a question as to whether the club is a nonsmoking club.  It was pointed out that there current policy is no smoking in the club during meetings and matches.  The president deferred this as a potential agenda item and change to the existing policy at the January 2017 meeting.

There was a question regarding the type calendar we are using on the website and whether it is Google calendars.  There was a desire to incorporate this to facilitate the access by members to information regarding activates of the club.  The vice president will take this on and work with Matt Creason, the website administrator.

There was a discussion on the issue of sponsors being present when a new members is brought into the club.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:33pm.
