- Business Arising from the Previous Minutes
2.1. The Business Arising items from the last meeting were reviewed. These are covered in the Membership Director’s Report.
3.0 New Business
3.1 It was suggested that restructuring the board would result in a more efficient board as it would be easier to achieve a quorum.
3.1 The restructured board would be President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and Membership Director. The tasks of Play Director, Social Director, and Maintenance Director would be handled by committees. This would alleviate the need for those current directors to attend board meetings, however, a written report would be required before each meeting
3.3 It was determined this should be discussed at the next meeting when more board members are present
