IV. 2007 Financial Statement

The club account had a $526.29 increase from the beginning of the year.  
The accounting year has traditionally been from October to October, but
the Board decided to change the accounting year to a standard calendar year running from January to January in order to line up with the IRS requirement to file an income tax statement beginning in 2008 for all non-profit organizations.             

V. Ohio Aerobatic Open
                - 2008 Budget Planning
                      The Board members reviewed the contest budget and allocated
                       40% of the membership dues to help pay for the contest. The rest

                       of the income needed to run the contest will come from sponsorship
                       donations and entry fees.
               - Volunteer recruitment
                       The largest concern about running the contest remains with who will
                        be the CD. Gordon is unable to commit because he was not awarded
                        the week of the contest off during his vacation bid at work.

                       The Board is in agreement that the contest will be run by co-CD’s
                       and the positions are open to interested club members.

                - Meal planning
                        The Friday night pizza dinner will remain in place.  Attendees will
                        not be charged, but a collection bucket will be placed at the food table
                        to see if we can defer some of the cost.
                        The Saturday night banquet location is being researched.  We may
                        hold the banquet in the hangar as usual but are looking at alternatives.
                        Lunches will be served by a local civic group – hot food on-site to be
                        be purchased individually.

                 - Sanction, Insurance and waiver
                        All will be applied for in January 2008.

IAC34 Board of Directors
Meeting Notes - June 11, 2007
Attending: Gordon & Lorrie Penner, Jeff Granger, Patty Anderson
Meeting Began 2110 EST

Agenda
1. Donation -
a donation of $1,000 was received by the club as a result of an aircraft sale to one of chapter 34's members. The DR109 was offered by Wayne & Kathy Norris and purchased by IAC34 member Chris Keegan. The Board Members unanimously decided that the money will be used for educational outreach activities or to supplement the IAC34 Aerobatic Scholarship.
Motion was made to grant a Lifetime membership in IAC34 for Wayne & Kathy Norris.
Motion Made: Penner/2nd Granger
Vote: Unanimous / motion carries.

2. IAC34 Scholarship - is back on track for presentation at the Ohio Aerobatic Open. Eight applications are being reviewed by the Scholarship Committee members; Penner, E. Stewart, and Granger.  Guidelines for determining recipient were discussed.  The recipient of the 2007 scholarship will be announced at the Saturday night banquet during the trophy presentation.   Raffle: $315 has been collected to date towards the scholarship.
David Clark has donated a headset valued at $300. The Board made the decision to add the headset as a raffle item toward the scholarship.  Tickets for the drawing of the headset may be purchased at the contest.

3. Ohio Aerobatic Open
A. There is no assistant CD for the 2007 contest at this point.  The original hope was that someone would be assistant CD this year with an eye on being able to be the CD for the 2008 contest, since Gordon's schedule is uncertain with his junior captain position and on-call status at work.  The Board members discussed the CD job and what it really means to be CD at our contest. Generally, the CD is in charge of a lot of the pre-planning of the contest, however at our contest, the pre-planning is taken care of by Secretary Penner and Pres Penner.  The CD for the Ohio Aerobatic Open is mostly in charge of the contest itself - onsite trouble shooting, being there for the contest jury, and keeping things running smoothly. 

B. Preparation for the 2007 contest is going well. Final details are being completed,
-most all of the Volunteer positions have been filled and VC, Nancy Wright will fill the rest of the spots on-site during the contest.
-Meal are planned. Lunches Fri-Sat / Barrys Perch and More. Dinners Fri/pizza provided by IAC34 and Saturday catered banquet served in the hangar.
-We have 18 pilots pre-registered. Expectation is for a total of 40.
-New FBO Mgr-Rick Belford. Gordon has made contact with the new FBO mgr. Rick is interested in keeping things running as they have in the past.

4. Strategic Vision for the club was discussed. Items to be considered for the direction of the club are, 1) expanding the educational component of our club., 2)making more of a connection with flight schools.

5. Dayton Air Show Secretary Penner continues to be involved in the planning with the Greater Dayton EAA group for a static aircraft display and booth space. Granger will bring his Extra 300L and work in the booth. Anderson has volunteered to work in the booth one day.

Meeting ended 2205 EST
