Minutes of the September meeting were approved.
Treasury: Good financial shape. We paid our CT Business Registration Fee ($50). Our insurance and website payments are coming up which will be about $375 total.
We have 65 current members, pretty much the same as last year.
Website: Nothing to report.
Repeaters: W1SMS has been busy and has not made any progress on the hospital repeater. He is still working on getting an MOU with the hospital to make sure we are covered there. He is planning on integrating Echolink into the repeater site rather than having it external to the repeater.
N1DPD was at the trailer and noticed a little rust on top of the back door. We will need to address it sooner rather than later.
It is time to start planning the holiday party – hint hint.
New business:
K1RF pointed out that we need some major events and meeting programming to get some club excitement going. WE NEED VOLUNTEERS TO ORGANIZE EVENTS AND ORGANIZE MEETING PROGRAMS!!!
Next meeting:

Meeting adjourned at 8:20 pm.
