Central
Arizona Chapter
July Minutes
The July meeting was held
at the Can't Stop Smokin' BBQ in Chandler.
Present at
the meeting were Andy and Debbie O'Brien,
Bob Rebsamen, Kent
Taylor, Tim
and Karen
Johnson.
There was good talk, cheer, and great food.
This meeting was brought to order by Bob. The minutes of the May
meeting were read by Tim. We discussed the new ETE governance
guidelines. It appears to require a bank account with a Federal EIN
number in order for donors to claim a deduction on their Federal taxes.
There may also be a requirement to register with the state of Arizona's
corporation commission. Tim will write to the CoCal Chapter and ask how
they dealt with these new requirements.
Rail
Fair and Modules
Earlier,
John Leipsic
had volunteered to finish the scenery for the currently bare corner
module. Thanks to John for agreeing to that effort.
We decided to bring the modules to the September meeting to see how
they fit, and decide on any improvements that should be made before
Rail Fair in October.
The next meeting will be held on September 8th
at the home of Andy and Debbie O'Brien at 10:30 AM. The meal will be
pot luck.
Respectfully submitted,
Tim Johnson, Secretary
