  1. Secretary’s Report– February Minutes were unanimously accepted and will be posted on the website.
  2. Long-Range Membership Committee report – Anne Hodsdon, chair and Bill Hickey, committee member

Anne and Bill presented the results of the membership survey, which they felt garnered a strong enough response to base long-term membership recommendations upon. The recommendations were presented to the EC and discussed. It was agreed that the implementation of some, or possibly all, of the recommendations, could be implemented in 2018, but that a presentation to the entire Board of Directors would be in order first.

The EC thanked Anne and the committee for the long hours of hard work and member communication that was required for the task. The report was accepted and will be further discussed at the April E.C. meeting.

  • Treasurer Report- presented by Rob MacLeod

The compilation was turned in and the 2017 tax return was successfully completed. The 2018 season budget is close to finalization as storm damage repairs are still being taken into consideration. The budget will be presented for approval at the April meeting. A move to change the financial rule as revised was accepted. The Financial Report was accepted unanimously.

  1. Manager’s Report– Jeff Ristau, Manager

Much of the Manager’s Report focused on the recent storm damage, which was substantial. Jeff was negotiating pricing with multiple vendors regarding repairs and maintenance for the upcoming season. The insurance review was to be possibly revised and Rob and Garry would join Jeff in speaking to the insurance adjusters regarding the unique needs of the club. Jeff has reached out to past employees and started searching for new employees for the coming season.

  1. Social Report– Meganne Fabrega, Social Chair

Meganne presented the EC with a proposed social calendar for the upcoming season, which had been prepared with the help of member Kelly Parrott and incoming board member and co-chair for the social committee, Tiffany McCann.
