Item # 26 - Items for the Winter ( January ) Quarterly Meeting

Post here any items you want on the agenda for the next quarterly meeting.

[Christopher Mallon]

At very least there should be an interim report from the TDOCP committee.

[Bob Armstrong]

Motion 2011-B - Single Annual CFC Membership & Fee

- For Discussion & Voting

Moved: Aris Marghetis; Seconded : Chris Mallon

- that CFC replace the memberships for Adult, Family, and Junior, with a single new annual CFC membership, and the rate for the federal portion would be $30.

( Note: it may be relevant to this motion that there is also being voted on at this meeting now, Motion 2011-D, which seeks to form a Membership/Rating Fee Restructuring Committee ).

Since Motion 2011-D passed, forming the Membership/Rating Fee Restructuring Committee, then an additional item for the Winter Quarterly Meeting is:

Item # 10 - Membership/Rating Fee Restructuring Committee - Report


Since Motion 2011-C passed giving funding to upgrade the CFC Discussion Forum, an additional item would be:

Item # 11 - Uprade to CFC Discussion Forum - Report of Administrator

[Michael von Keitz]

Tentatively, I would like to suggest a discussion surrounding life memberships be added to the agenda for the winter meeting. I know there are some who feel they should be evaluated.

[Lyle Craver]

Just so we're clear you're talking about the type "L" membership that anyone can take out on payment of a fee dependent on their age?

If we are going to have that discussion, I would like to see a discussion on more flexible membership options - 1 year, 2 year, 3 year, 5 year etc. I personally think the USCF is on the right track with their current membership structure (as opposed to what they did in the past with their Life Membership fund which was horribly abused in the 1970s/80s and put them in a hole they are now out of but which skewed their finances for a long time)

[Bob Armstrong]
