6.     Old Business

Table Cloths

Betty Brice purchased new table clothes for the clubhouse (see treasurer's report).  The table clothes are slightly a different color, but not really noticeable.

 

Cleaning up after Event

Betty Brice mention the new vacuum cleaner has been used with the wrong settings.  The settings should not be the lowest, but actually two away from the lowest according to the manufacturer.  The lowest settings are for bare floors, and not carpet.  When the setting is on the lowest one, it has been burning the belts out.


Along the lines of cleaning up, the checklist format will be revised.  The checklist will become an active checklist, placed on a clipboard in the kitchen.  Any time the clubhouse is used for an event, the users will fill out the checklist with date, group name, each item checked and then signed and placed in the folder of "Completed Checklist."  Hopefully this will help remind each group of the things that need to be done at each event.  After discussion, a motion made by Donna Wasem and seconded by Dee Halpin to adopt this new procedure for cleanup. Motion approved.


Vince O'Connor will be asked to put something in an email and on the web so people will be aware of the changes. Connie Norstrem also suggested that something be put on Channel 95. 

 

Water Cooler for Golf Course

Donna Wasem wanted to know about the water cooler for the 7th hole.  The activities committee allotted money for an outside water fountain like the one by the pool.  No action has been taken as of this time and Dennis Catoe will be asked to see the status of this request.

 

7.     New Business

Bulletin boards

Faye Froehlich said that full pages are being used for bb notices; try to use ½ sheets if possible.  Another solution to help ease the space problem would putting up another board if they haven't done so already.  Some buildings have done this already.   On going events (i.e. blood pressure checks, etc)  should be made smaller if possible.

 

Lottery Selection Date for Events

On March 17th at 9 am the lottery selection for building potlucks etc will be held.  All building reps are requested to attend this meeting to pick dates for their building.  

 

Farewell Party

March 29th is the farewell party. The party will be given by the activities committee.  Dee Halpin, Jan Booker and Betty Brice will head up the committee.  It was suggested not to get music and just use the jukebox.  It was also recommended that Vince O'Connor be contacted for the use of the Karaoke machine. 

 

Newsletter

Connie Norstrem wanted to pass on comments about the fact that some renters thought the article about the problems in Golfview shouldn't be included in the newsletter. 

 

Set Meeting Date

The next meeting will be on Thursday, March 20, 2008 at 4 pm in the clubhouse activity room.

 

8.     Adjourn

Motion made by Mickie Flanders  and seconded by Betty Brice to adjourn the meeting.  The motion passed.  The meeting was adjourned at 4:41 pm by Faye Froehlich.
