Sarah Olmstead is now treasurer. I asked Howard Noreen to become fleet secretary. Hopefully many of you will be able to come to Graves' on 4/22. I'm taking advantage of the gathering by calling a fleet meeting at about 7:30. <br><br>I'd like to also encourage that some "motions" and "discussion" take place virtually to get a head start on fleet business, but I'm not sure using Sonar.list is the best way to do that. Any suggestions? Should we add some kind of forum platform to our fleet web page. Speaking of which, who's managing our web page
these days? Could this person offer a tour and some instruction of our web page and it's features at this meeting? Should that web page manager role be another "officer" of the fleet?<br><br>The first item to discuss and vote on might be ratifying (if that the right word?) this new fleet officer slate.<br>Second item, fleet treasury report.<br>Third, fleet dues. Should the amount per boat stay the same? Perhap we should review how that money has been used in the past. Do we want to modify how it's used going forward?<br><br>I also know that one topic for which motions, discussion, and voting is needed is regarding if the 1st and 2nd commodore cup races are counted any differently this year since
they happen the same time as the Sonar NAs and the team racing event.<br><br>Other areas of discussion might include:<br>NAs<br>B-series party<br>Team racing, <br> the event in the fall <br> some local intrafleet stuff over the summer, what and when.<br><br>Thanks, hopefully see you at Graves'.<br>Marty Fossen<br><br></td></tr></tbody></table></div><br>
