Hi folks -

Here are the minutes from last Thursday's meeting. Please send me any corrections!

A couple of updates since the meeting:
1) The Buddipole tripod and license manuals have been ordered.
2) I met with Dean Snow and Doug Forsyth this morning re: the cabinet. It looks like we can install it as soon as we can (a) put a nice club decal on it, and (b) schedule a work party to set it up. I'll send another e-mail about this shortly.

Also, just a friendly reminder to please pay your club dues! $15/year or $8/semester. Thanks to those of you who have already paid. I hate to sound like an NPR pledge drive, but buying decals, manuals, and equipment takes money out of our limited club funds. If just three more people paid club dues, we could completely defray the cost of the Buddipole tripod that we just ordered. Payment of club dues also entitles you to use the club's equipment throughout the year! Dues (cash or check made out to OUARC) can be turned in or mailed to either me or Somer.

Thanks!
