The Board of Directors of the Beaumont Chapter met at 1800 hours prior to the first scheduled chapter meeting. The first order of business was approval of the May 23, 2000 minutes as written. Secretary's Report There was no budget report, as little financial business has been conducted since the May board meeting. The proposed budget for 2000 will be presented to the chapter as discussed in the May meeting. Geoff Kret reviewed the list of members NOT in Good Standing. The updated 20 member list showed 4 paid dues members needing to submit application & physical exam paperwork, 5 anticipated new members who had yet to complete their applications, 6 members who had not submitted dues and late fees, 3 members who had paid neither dues nor forms, 1 reinstating member who has yet to complete his reinstatement, and one who needed an updated physical. Thirteen of the 20 members not in good standing were expected to continue to work football during the upcoming season. Geoff also reviewed what he had placed into packets for the chapter members: 2000 Board minutes, the schools chart, the proposed 2000 Budget and 5/22 budget review, and the database information sheet. Finally, Geoff went through a weekly varsity schedule review that he had compiled off of schools' schedules found on Dave Campbell's Texas Football website. 8 of 11 weeks all 16 crews could be busy, with a possibility that 5 of those 8 could demand more crews that the chapter has. The board discussed the need for White Hats in order to make up extra crews to fill the possible demand. Unfinished Business · Mr. Downey distributed a duties list for the Selections and assignments were made regarding who would perform what duties at the Selections. · It was decided to hold the Playoff assignment system proposals to later business meetings, as it was anticipated that the first chapter business meeting's agenda was already full. New Business · President Downey presented the board with the copy of the Constitution that he had marked up as a general revision to reflect the TASO name change and classification system change. · Two other amendments will be proposed at the following chapter business meeting: A revision to Policy 11, the missed game fine policy, and a revision to Policy 6-c, the scratch list/fill in procedure. The revision to Policy 11 will raise the missed game fine to $10, and the revision to Policy 6-c will require the mutual agreement of the involved coaches, Secretary, and referee to schedule a fill-in on a varsity assignment. · The board voted unanimously to invite the Sub-Varsity assignors to the Selections as a means of placing enhanced emphasis on sub-varsity coverage.

Þ No further board meetings are presently scheduled. Future board meeting will be called on an impromptu basis, as it becomes necessary.
