John Greenwell called the meeting to order after the shoot.
The minutes were called for; however, no minutes were available from the prior Board.
John Greenwell investigated the status of liability insurance for the Board; it was found to expire on 11-22-05. The cost of renewal is $550.00. Motion to renew was made by Craig Buchanan, seconded by Carl Patrick. Motion carried unanimously.
A motion was made by Tim Miles to have a Board meeting following each shoot until further notice, seconded by Carl Patrick. Motion carried unanimously.
A general discussion of ways to promote sporting clays within the state followed. A number of ideas were identified and Craig will begin to prioritize. Immediate action will be taken on several ideas:
Craig advised that we currently have 336 registered NSCA members, with only 83 shooting on a regular basis. Craig to explore options to evaluate the Board's performance (promotion of sporting clays within Arizona), with shoot attendance and target fees as beginning measurements. This information could be posted so that members could see the results.
An update on 2006 registered shoot dates was provided. Tim Miles has set the dates for Coyote Springs SC. Ben Avery CTC schedule will be forthcoming. Discussion was held on when to hold the State Shoot, either early or late in the year. Most on Board think late October, but no commitments were made at this time. The rational for awarding the 2006 State Shoot to Coyote Springs SC was discussed. The By-Laws do not refer to a "rotational basis" rationale used to award the shoot; however, the Board was in agreement to the location.
Dan has acquired a mailbox and checking account. Dan and John are signers on the account. The mailing address is:
ASCA
PMB 725
515 E. Carefree Hwy.
Phoenix, AZ 85085
A vote was taken to pay for mailbox. It passed unanimously.
Tim Miles to send money collected from target fees. Ron VanSickle to transfer current funds as soon as possible. Dan will discuss target fee transfer with David McGaffee .
John made a motion to buy accounting software, seconded by Carl, motion carried.
Chip Friedman reported on how website is progressing. Possible choices for a website address were discussed, with www.AZSportingClays.com the most popular. Motion to adopt by Carl, second by Tim, motion passed. Chip reviewed costs of website, including possible hosts: DreamHost.com and GoDaddy.com. Dan Beal to check cost versus value. Dan Beal said he would pay for first year.
Carl Patrick compared ASCA By-Laws to those recommended by the NSCA for state associations and found no noticeable difference. As a result, the Board agreed that no changes to ASCA By-Laws were necessary.
John asked why Picacho doesn't throw registered shoots? After some discussion, it was noted that in the interest of promoting the sport, the ASCA should approach Picacho about the possibilities of hosting a shoot.
Move to adjourn by Carl, seconded by Craig, motion carried
