President of the Newcomers, has asked to have a joint
Christmas party. The Board approved the request. The Board
needs to determine what it want to do with any excess monies
in its account. Some initial thoughts were to help
purchase vending machines for the PGICA to
& have its handicap railings extended, where applicable.
At the March meeting, the Board’s written
Policies/Procedures will be reviewed & amended, where
applicable.
Because Dine Around conflicts with the Seafarer’s general
meeting, moving it to a Monday or Tuesday evening in the 2nd
or 3rd week were mentioned. Further discussion is
needed.
