OLD BUSINESS

District 10 Meeting: Fran reported on the District 10 meeting which was held in Biloxi, MS. Fran reported on the Tournament Rotation Issue. The Tournament Oversight Committee is recommending that Mobile be removed from the Regional Rotation List. She also reported that the vote on the issue will not be taken in Biloxi, but will be taken at the District 10 Meeting in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Fran hopes to find someone who can go and speak in our behalf. The Board members were disappointed in the voting site as that is not convenient for us.

Regional Tournament: Nancy gave an update on the upcoming split Regional with Shreveport. A sign up list for members to volunteer to help is posted. She mentioned that we usually give out gift bags at registration. After discussion, it was decided that a water bottle holder would be appropriate.

NEW BUSINESS

The meeting was adjourned at 3:10 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Margaret Miller,

Secretary
