The meeting started at 8 p.m. with these people in attendance: Cheryl and Brad McIntyre, Joe and Sher Martin, Lynn and Floyd McClelland, Mike Burdett, Nesi Seidl, Mary Ann Schick, Sandi Sprigg and Rhea Thomas. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved.

Joe sent out 335 informational cards for the winter league. The treasury is the same since last meeting with some necessary bills being paid. The Treasurer's report was approved.

The Midyear Tournament is on January 12, 2002. Joe has ordered 68 plaques for this occasion. We also put a memo in the newspaper and on the net about returning any plaques, patches or envelopes that you are not currently using, back to the League. If this is something you can do, please give your goods to one of the Board members. We thank you in advance.

Sandi brought up the missing Lutz Curry trophy. Should another one be purchased? It was decided to bring this up at the End of the Year Banquet for consideration of the League. Maybe someone at the function will know where the missing one is.

Joe motioned that Section 5 of Article 4 be removed as it refers to nothing. Section 6 would be moved into position #5. The motion was tabled until the first meeting in January so Lynn could do some checking into this for the Board. 

The packets for the Winter season will be put together at 7:30 on 12/26/01 at the VFW.

The MDO shoot costs per team. This is something we would like to participate in next year. Mike Burdett will call them to show we are interested and would like to receive timely information on it for next year. 

Everyone who comes to the Mid Year Banquet is to bring a dish to pass. Door prizes will be on the order of last year's line up. The stereo, a dart board, and a year membership. The Luck of the Draw will cost $5.00 for members and $10.00 for non members. The League will put in $200.00.

The meeting ended at 9:30. The next one will be on 1/2/02 at 8:00. 

Cordially, your Secretary, Rhea Thomas

The Minutes of the 10/03/01 meeting were approved as read.

The Treasurer's report was accepted. We owe a fee to ADO for the cricket shoot. Due to the fact that we get late info on this shoot we may not send anyone next time. Also, we have low participation.

The language of Article 4, Section 3 of the By-Laws was changed to reflect the reality of its use. The change was voted on in the past but the wording never got changed to reflect this vote. All officers will serve a  one (1) year term. Terms can be extended per a popular vote as shown in Section 4 of the same Article. It is on the web for your reading pleasure.

The Board decided to pay Cheryl for the publishing of the first page at the end of each season, thus keeping bookwork down for the Board.

Some members have approached Cheryl requesting that the stat papers sent through the mail be taped instead of stapled. The stats are getting ruined upon opening with staples. Joe said he would try to tape. Let us know how it works!

The Board also allocated Cheryl money to purchase photo albums to house the many pictures she has taken for the League.

Joe requested an upgrade in our website. We now have a 50 mb site. For a small amount extra we can have a 150 mb site. The Board agreed that this was necessary.

Sandi made a suggestion to order Banquet prizes from a magazine called Muellers. Mike will look it over.

Lynn suggested we charge for team pictures like they do at bowling tournaments. This is an idea that needs looking into.

The Midyear Tournament will be held on 1/12/02. The Winter Season starts on 1/7/02. The current Season ends on 12/17/01. Packet put together meeting will be on 12/26/01.

The meeting ended at 9:45. Our next meeting will be on 12/05/01.

The  End of the Year Banquet was discussed. Mike ordered a full sheet anniversary cake from VG's. He cancelled the assorted desserts at K of C and requested fruit and cheeses in their place. Has not heard from them on this point yet. Mary Ann and Rhea will purchase 2 double rolls of raffle tickets and 3 single rolls for the banquet.

There will be a sign up list at the Banquet for the Summer League. It will allow subs. A total of 7 games will be played to complete the night.

Brad brought up the Round Robin Scoring. Joe read the rules. The wins are either the number of game wins or round wins. The rules give you this option.

3rd - Mark Martin                 Sandi Sprigg

The League will send 2 males (Mark Brundage & Mark Martin) and 2 Females (Sue Crank & Debbie McQuillan) to Youngstown Ohio to shoot in the regional. Good luck to all. The League will hold a few 50/50 drawings to help deplete the cost of sending 4 people.

The All Star Shoot was held at the Wagon Wheel. Cheryl will send them a Thank You note for their help in making it a great day. The Moe Crook Shoot will also be held at the Wagon Wheel.

Chris Gavette is calling 4th Division Captains about the Moe Crook Shoot.

Brad had a question on how the Round Robin Format worked. The final winner is the winner of the greatest number of games. Not the winner of most rounds.

Cheryl shared the card she made for the Barnett family. She did a lovely job. The Barnetts called and told her this and the League agreed.

Mike Burdett has been approached about forming a Summer League. It would be a smaller League with 3 man teams allowing substitutes. It would start in June and go until the 1st of August (Approximately 9 weeks).

Joe still needs nominations for the Board. The response has been minimal.

The Year End Banquet is on 5/5/01. The League will buy the supplies and a cake to commemorate our 20th Year Anniversary.

The Main courses that day will be Prime Rib and Chicken. Guests will be charged $12.50 for the main buffet.

The day's raffle will be for a year's membership, a dart board, maybe a cooler, tent, chair combo.

Raffle tickets are also needed for Beer, Food and Pop sales.

We will honor Val Owen for her contribution to the past and current running of our League. The whole League Board voted on this choice.

The meeting ended at 10:15 with our photographer taking pictures of the Board to be put on our web page. Our next meeting will be on 5/2/01 at the VFW.
