BCSA Rescue & Health Foundation: The board views the function of a BCSA Rescue & Health Foundation as one that reviews and funds proposals for BC rescue, health, education, and other relevant projects. Rescue proposals will be funded on a merit basis and must include documentation that the rescue group submitting the proposal meets a specified set of criteria established by BCSA (or the Foundation). These criteria would be considered by those active in rescue as those which define a well organized, effective rescue group. Criteria for funding health-related proposals (i.e., the CEA project) will be determined at a later date. It was recommended by Richard Whorton that the board move forward in setting up the BCSA Rescue & Health Foundation, and he submitted to the board for consideration a proposed framework based upon discussion with several people.
Janet Lewis has volunteered to donate 20% of the profits from any future seminars she gives once the Foundation is in place and also offered to sit on the board of the Foundation.
BC Store:
The
board approved Karla Kimmey to set up and manage the BC Store.
Annual General Meeting: Although the premium list announces the Annual General Meeting to be held at the Specialty, it was also noted that, according to our By-Laws, the Secretary is to mail a notifications to all club members in good standing.
Judges’ Request: The board agreed that the club would pay for an additional night’s stay for the three obedience judges so they may attend the banquet.
Educational Information: The board approved funding 200 copies of an educational leaflet for tracking at the Specialty.
Back Taxes: The Club has received an invoice for back taxes owed in 1997.
Treasurer’s Report: Kim Augustine made a motion that, effective September 1, 1999, each issue of Borderlines must contain a Treasurer’s Report that includes a complete numerical breakdown of all transactions and a complete accounting of all balances made since the previous report. She further moved that the Board of Directors of the BCSA must submit to the membership each year in the first installment of Borderlines for that year a proposed budget for the coming year. If the proposed budget is not delivered, then all reimbursement and authorization of expenditures by the BCSA will be placed on hold until such time as the budget is presented to the membership. Helen Phillips seconded the motion, and Richard Whorton, Janet Lewis, Terry Wise-Hammond, and Debbie Spence voted in favor.
Specialty Budget: It has been suggested that future Specialty Chairs be required to submit a proposed budget before the Specialty is approved and funds released for such.
AKC Executive Field Representative: Mr. John Wade, a new AKC Executive Field Rep, will be attending this year’s Specialty. In addition, he has been asked to speak on the AKC Judging Application Process on Sunday.
Secretary’s Resignation: Due to work load and personal time commitments, Debbie Spence submitted her resignation effective when a replacement was found. Richard Whorton nominated Linda Baron to replace Debbie effective September 1st, and Kim Augustine, Helen Phillips, Janet Lewis, and Terry Wise-Hammond voted in favor.
