New business
- The annual Club picnic is cancelled this year due to prolonged concerns over Covid and its variants
- The August monthly member meeting is cancelled as it typically is during the PNW DX convention, (August 7, 2021 this year)
- The Board discussed ongoing monthly membership meetings. The result of holding meetings over a virtual platform has shown a rise in attendance bringing together hams that may typically not be able to attend due to distance or driving considerations. In addition, guest speakers can present in the comfort of their own home. Consequently, the consensus is that the virtual presentations will continue.
- An online survey will go out to Members for their input regarding in person meeting gatherings
- The in person gathering locations are being investigated by Adam K7EDX for cost and availability
- Rob N7QT and Justin K5EM will examine the costs and technology needed to host both online virtual presentations in conjunction with in person meeting gatherings
- It was resolved to host the Club’s annual Christmas party this year for in person attendance
Monthly Meeting
- The September 14, 2021 online Zoom presentation content will be posted on the Club’s website when known. A meeting invitation will be sent via email
