OEN Minutes

August 23, 2009 

The meeting was called to order by the Chairman of the Board K7MKN at 13:32, Board Members present were K7MKN, WA7FIV, K7RFO and W7BXD.  Other OEN members present were N7IPG, KE7GML, KK7KK, KG7UY, KE7LKT, W7LJB, K6UGS and K7DDI. 

The minutes for the year were read and approved by the Board and seconded by WA7FIV.  The Treasurers report was given by N7RBO, ND7V couldn’t make the annual meeting so he gave the treasurers report to N7RBO.  As of July 29th, 2009 there was $939.47 in the bank account.  

Since N7IPG resigned from the Board he hadn’t proceeded with updating the OEN Booklet.  A motion was made by K7MKN that the OEN Booklet be a historical document and move on.  This was agreed by all Board Members and seconded by W7BXD.

 K7MKN asked K6UGS if his Web Page could be the official OEN web page.  K6UGS said qsl.OEN page had to be closed out by KK7VO and he wasn’t sure if he could become a QSL Member.  K7DDI said he would talk to KK7VO and see what could be done.  Until then Vern will have the OEN web page under k6ugs.com/oen.htm.   

K7RFO made a motion that Karen N7RBO be reimbursed for her expenses, was approved and 2nd by WA7FIV. 

N7RBO made a suggestion that the map be re-done.  It has become outdated.  Her suggestion was to combine the Portland and Willamette Valley and have one more Director at Large.  This would give the board the same Board Members and open up more opportunities for others that are interested in becoming Board Members.  K7MKN asked if any board members would be interested in checking on this and actually seeing where the boundaries are and what by-laws would have to be updated to comply.  WA7FIV volunteered and also W7BXD, they said they would need at least 6 months or more.  They would report to the Net Manger/Secretary when they completed the task and then set up a Special Meeting. 

N7IPG brought up the roster and towns that should be called and calls to be removed.  N7RBO said the Net Control is in control of his net, if they choose to make their own roster this is fine, but she does send one out each month that is updated.

 Since there was no other business K7MKN made a motion the annual meeting be adjourned at 14:10 hours, was seconded by K7RFO and W7BXD.
