TCLL Board Meeting
May 15, 2008
Hyde Middle School

Attendees:  Steve Cousins, Deirdre Lum,  Joe Mardesich, Max Dunn, Helene Workman

Meeting convened informally at 8:45PM.  Max Dunn arrived at 8:05PM.

I.  Discussion of scheduling of Seniors teams and double-header scheduled at end of season.

II.  Discussion related to one of the Majors teams that may need to improve its positive coaching.

III.  Discussion of All-stars and managers.  There will be no 9 year old team and no 11 year old team.  For the 12, year old team, it was suggested that Steve Campbell be manager.

IV.  Action Item:   Suzanne needs to send out All-star eligibility forms to the players.

V.  Steve delivered budget information from Barun.  Barun will try to send out year-to-date information for the budget.  Barun has been keeping umpire payments up to date.  There was then a discussion regarding umpires for Seniors.  Seniors get one umpire from the League.  They have 3 other umpires:  Les, Ricky and Johnny Price.  Ted Roberts is also a backup umpire.  [Max Dunn arrived.]  Barun has not received any further donations since last months report.  TCLL is now down $3600 from the projected budget.  The snack shack account is flat if you adjust for payments to personnel.  We could use someone to monitor the account.  It was suggested that for the next year we find a snack shack coordinator to organize and lead an auxiliary to handle the snack shack.   There could be a set of defined jobs that would be handled by members of the snack shack auxiliary, e.g. shopper, opener, closer, etc…  TCLL fees for next year will need to be raised because donations and snack shack revenue is down this year.

VI.  We also need to compile a slate of Board Members for election for next year and we need to do Constitution changes.

VII.  Action Item:  Steve will schedule another board meeting.

VIII.  Action Item:  Max will send email to Board members regarding the next board meeting, requesting that Members come to meetings and to let us know if the Board Member is unable to attend.

IX.  Deirdre has started getting the All-star uniforms.

X.  MOTION:  Motion to nominate and approve Steve Campbell as All-stars manager for the 12 year old team.  Passed unanimously (5 votes).

XI.  Action Item:  Max will send email to general membership inviting people to run for the Board.

XII.  Action Item:  Max will send email to Team Managers requesting name(s) of two people to approach to run for Board.

XIII.  MOTION:  Motion to Adjourn at 8:30PM.  Passed unanimously.
