Old Business:
·Review of the April 26th Kid’s Fishing Derby. The Derby was a success. A write up and photo’s are available on the website.
·A thank you letter from Kolodiy family, to all Club Members, was read.
·The Club was unable to obtain the necessary permits, for the selected date of October 5th, to have a Tournament on the Newark Watershed. The event will be held on the scheduled date (10/5) and will take place on the Hudson River (which was the alternate body of water selected at the November meeting).
New Business:
Four motions were put forth and three were second. The motions, to be carried over for vote to the next meeting are as follows:
1.To make Lake George a permanent site on the annual Tournament schedule and the event shall be known as “The Charlie Kolodiy Memorial Tournament”.
2.To change existing rules (in section VI) that state that voting on Lakes for the upcoming season will take place at the August and finalized at September meeting (as opposed to the current October/November timeframes).
3.In a situation where there are not enough Member boats available for a Tournament, a last resort scenario would be to use an Observer’s boat. A new rule would read: “The Observer can be a boater if a boat is needed due to lack of boater participation, or breakdowns“. All current Observer rules remain the same.
