The slate of officers was approved unanimously by those present. At the December meeting, we will put forth a change to the bylaws to split the current Secretary / Treasurer position. When the club started, it was two separate positions, but they were combined into one.
We discussed removing daylilies from the display bed and selling these to the club members or at a future plant sale.
We discussed the possibility of changing the bylaws to change from no dues to $10 per year per person. Without participation from members in the plant sale, the club needs some way to provide funds for speakers and activities. This will be discussed and voted on at the December meeting.
We discussed taking down the website, but it was felt that it was a good place to keep members informed of what is going on in the club. All members are encouraged to check out the website and suggest what else they might like to see there.
