Board Members in attendance:  Richard Leddon, Erik Boye, Kirk Jamison, Laura Barton, Dee Perry,

  Ann Goldfarb, Doug Peterman

 

Staff in attendance:  KJ Buzek

 

Meeting called to order by Richard

 

Public Participation: Neighbors have expressed concern regarding speed in and out of the Club.

  The Board agreed that this is serious and will place a yield sign on Club property

 

May 19, 2009 meeting minutes are still missing, Laura is working on finding her notes with

  sincere apologies to the Board for her mistake

 

Staff Report:

 

KJ reports that all general maintenance is going on without difficulty or problems. 

  Thanks to KJ and the Staff for the overall great appearance of the Club

 

Some members are still concerned about the access to the back courts, this is still being

  assessed, and a permanent solution will occur shortly

 

KJ will create a sign to be placed in the platform courts reminding people (mainly kids) to not

  use the platform for another playground, and to be respectful of people playing around the

  platforms 

 

Committees:

 

Swim:  The swim season is in full swing with great participation, and very good response to the

  new coaching staff.  We have had one home meet, with two more to come, and the slight

  possibility of hosting the 8 and under prelims the week of July 20 

 

 

Tennis:  KJ and Doug met with Adrian – dates have been set for all tennis social functions    

  Junior Club Championships are to run July 16 thru July 19

  Adult Club Championships are to run August 13 thru August 16

  Concerns regarding people who sign up for clinics but don’t show, and people who don’t

    sign up for clinics but show up.  KJ was going to address this with an e-mail to members,

    as this is a problem for Adrian and the other pros to ensure that all clinics are properly

    staffed

 

Social:  Erik has generously agreed to head up the Fourth of July activities, he will enlist

  help from the membership, as well as other Board members.

 

Membership:  Kirk has created a membership project document that was briefly discussed

  at this meeting.  Due to the amount of information to consider, we will study the report

  and work on it more extensively at the July Board meeting

 

Finance:  Dee reviewed year to date financials with no specific issues

 

Grounds and Facilities:  Nothing new to report

 

By Laws:  Nothing new to report

 

Concerns:  Some members are concerned with the continuity and quality of junior

  clinics.  The thought is that there should be consistency throughout the Meadows

  Tennis program, and would it be worthwhile for Adrian to conduct a clinic with all

  the junior pros to make this happen.  It is strongly felt by membership that all adult

  clinics not be conducted by the junior pros.

 

Next meeting – tentatively set for July 21, 2009 at Richard Leddon’s home, 9:30 am
