CHAPTER BUSINESS AND REPORTS:
Saul Krochmal, President: New Business: (1) Please see Alfredo if you wish to join. (2) The missed meeting Fines have been totaled for last year, I will be going through them soon to make sure they are correct and any member who owes us will be billed. You have to appear at 8 meetings during the year. The first 6 missed are billed at $20/meeting. The last 2 are billed at $100/ meeting. Miss them all and the fine is $320. For the previous 2 years we billed approximately $5500 in these fines which we gave away at the December Dinner Meeting as equipment. (3) There is a man out sick, when he went out his “sick cards” were not filled out. Farshid and Mike Sidoti went out of their way to fill out the cards for him. I have said this before: If your “sick cards” are not filled out you will not be covered. The man who is out now is lucky to be covered. (4) Brad Mills and me went to the BORD Installation Dinner Meeting and Seminar last month, this is a requirement of Big IPSSA. At the meeting we presented SPEC with our $2000 donation. (5) We got a thank you note from Revitalize Reseda for our help.
Old Business: (1) Keep your Sick Route cards up to date, if you go out: no cards= no coverage. You will need a list of all your customers also for Farshid if you go out sick. (2) Keep your phone numbers up to date with the Billing Office so Farshid is able to call you. (3) We will pay for your pre-registration for the Western Pool and Spa Show in March. The amount we pay will depend on how many people request reimbursement.
Brad Mills, Vice President: None
MIKE SIDOTI, Treasurer: Reads report (attached.)
JEFF STEINBACH, Social Activities: There will be a fishing trip on July 1. The first two months the sign up will be limited to full members, then it will open up to supporters and guests.
BILL JACKSON, Secretary: (1) Minutes accepted as printed in newsletter. (2) Sorry I had the meeting time incorrectly listed as 7:30 pm in the newsletter.
ALFREDO Hernandez, Attendance: (1) Please see me if you wish to join the Chapter. One person is almost ready to join, but we are waiting on pre-requisites to be fulfilled. (2) I had problems at the office and the attendance book is not prepared for this year, so please just sign the attendance sheet that is going around.
FARSHID ENTEGHAMI, Sick Pool Chairman: Bart Wonderly is out. Saul will speak on the importance of having your “Sick Cards” filled out.

ADJOURN at 8:25 PM.
Bill Jackson, Secretary
