Financial Report -
There is $461.66 in the checking account.
The $5,000 CD matures on October 23 and will be rolled over.
Bills are being sent to the clubs.
Old Business:
Calendar updates - Additions and changes
were presented. (An updated calendar is attached.) Our
web site is updated as items are given to
Bill.
Skate with US workshop -
The workshop scheduled for September 30 was cancelled
due to low registration.
Jim Murphy's Computer Program -
Jim will incorporate the new test forms into his program before sending
our clubs the computer discs.
To thank Jim for his time, a dinner certificate will be sent to him.
Announcements:
A copy of the Skate with US
video was sent to the Basic Skills rep of all clubs.
The video goes through all elements and is a good teaching tool.
The USFSA Nominating Committee worksheets have been sent to all clubs and
are due November 15.
Concerns:
In order to register skaters or file test session data on-line,
a club must utilize a credit card.
A debit card will not be accepted.
Clubs should bond positions that handle the club's money. The cost is
approximately $100/year through an insurance company.
For insurance purposes, it is required that all individuals - parents, skaters, paid
staff, unpaid staff - who will be on the ice during Basic Skills time, be registered with
Skate With Us. It is also true of USFSA ice time - anyone that will be on the ice during
USFSA time must be registered with USFSA.
Next Meeting:
November 20th, 2001, 7:00pm, McCarthy's Restaurant, Canton, NY 13617
