Open Issues a) Schedule/Plan Annual Meeting. Would like to recognize coaches, referees, and teams and make it something where more people would attend and then have the official annual meeting of the membership. Suggestion was made to have a volunteer committee for 2014, too much to do for this upcoming annual meeting, which needs to be held by end of September. -

Will review in further detail at next meeting. c) Sign sponsorship - Considering having sponsors help support the field maintenance with signs with their logos on fields reflecting their sponsorships. - Suggest that we take current signs down at end of season because of graffiti and wear and tear. VI.

Coordinator/Committee Reports a) Field Coordinator - Sprinklers need to be repaired. - Need to take care of cupola in Pavilion. b) Uniform/Equipment Coordinator - Uniforms should be here by 9/1. - All but a couple of teams have checked in their equipment from spring/summer. - If you know of any organizations that could use old uniforms, let Heather know.

Doug is thrilled to have almost all teams organized and coaches for the teams.
-
Some teams still have room for additional players, if new players desire to play. Can also have a waiting list. Should set up a time for supplemental evaluations for spring, and get that date soon and make clear process for getting on team after deadline. Likely do in March.
d) Inhouse Recreational Coordinator - Need to have more volunteers helping out. e) JJSO Coordinator - No report. Todd has meeting on Wednesday 8/28 with Community Services, along with NBA, and VB, to put in bids for gym times for NSA for winter. Will be in a better position to get better times, but need to be sure to use what space we get. Adjournment Holly Scheuble adjourned the meeting at 8:33 p.m. Minutes submitted by: Michelle Lasswell
