PSFM GENERAL MEETING MINUTES - April 24, 2006


A general meeting of the members of PSFM was called to order by the Vice President, Ronald B. "Ron", at the Campus of the University of North Florida, during the Special Problems Conference, Jacksonville, Florida on April 24, 2006, at 2:30PM. The following members of the Board of Directors were present, not constituting a quorum:

V/PRESIDENT: Ronald B. "Ron" Jack
SECRETARY: James A. "Jim" Moore

MEMBERS/GUESTS: Six members and two visitors were present.

MINUTES OF THE MEETING

The minutes of the 2005 General Meeting and April 10, 2006 meeting of the BOD were read.

Motion by Mike Fouty, second by Ron Jack, accepting the minutes as read. "Motion Passed."

No treasurers' report was available.

The following items were discussed:

· The BOD on April 10, 2006, agreed that the sitting President should represent PSFM at the TAARS F3T2 Conference and be reimbursed for the one to two days of additional hotel cost and reasonable cost for meals for those days only.

· Again, using the PSFM web site to promote 'tips and training' via the web site and create a separate page where members can sell/swap/buy FMS equipment. Additionally, a request for papers was made.

· PSFM previously had a re-certification program that the members would like to be established again.

Dennis Payne and Jim Moore will co-chair a committee to reinstate the re-certification program beginning at the next 2007 general meeting. This will be published through various outlets.

· Again, listing PSFM members, including contact information, on the web site for members---the members present suggested putting out a mailer to all members regarding this matter.

· Members thought it would be a good idea for PSFM to host its own seminar at some future time and date.

· The following nominations for the upcoming elections were made:

PRESIDENT: Ronald B. "Ron" Jack
V/PRESIDENT: Chuck Veppert
SECRETARY: James A. "Jim" Moore
TREASURER: Toby Wagner
SERGEANT AT ARMS: Dennis Payne

Since there is no opposition to any position, a letter of acclimation will be mailed to the membership.

Two door-prizes were announced and the members present wanted the visitors to be potential winners too, so they were included in the following drawings:

· Mr. Kelly Young, President of the Maine Computer Group, provided PSFM with a copy of one of his programs (AR Pro/Recall/TSB), as a door prize---and the winner was (Visitor) Charlie M. Russell.

· Ron Jack and Jim Moore provided a copy of Frank Navin's new book which was won by Gregory Vandenberg.

The minutes of this meeting were duly recorded by Jim Moore on April 24, 2005, and published, via email, to the Board of Directors on May 2, 2005
