On a motion by Member Sanders and a second by Member Myers, the minutes of the Membership Meeting of November 11, 2006, were amended to reflect a more accurate total in the investment account: $342,967. The amendment passed. The minutes were approved.

Treasurer Eller reported that there is $201 in the Operating account, $1,425 in the Alumni account and approximately $982 in the savings account. He reported that Homecoming expenses exceeded dues collected by about $35. President Rupkey suggested that in the future the Treasurer's report could be provided in writing to the Board.

Member Malcomb reported a current balance of $342,967 in the investment account.

There was a discussion about possible 2007 philanthropic activities for the Board. The Board reached a concensus that activities should involve the University and contribute toward the Board's goals. President Rupkey indicated that Vice President Warren, who was appointed chair of a committee to investigate such activities can report at the next meeting.

President Rupkey reported to the Board than he plans to mail a letter in the near future to ATW National commenting on the legal stance it has taken regarding the risk of operating in Arizona. The Board agreed to await a reply to that letter before taking any further action on re-chartering efforts.

Secretary Richardson reported to the Board his concerns about both the rules and the implementation of those rules by the University Alumni Association at Homecoming 2006. After a discussion, the Board agreed that we would investigate hosting an event away from the Mall at Homecoming 2007 and possibly just having a small presence on the Mall without alcohol.

The Board tentatively scheduled the Spring special meeting of the Board for Saturday, March 3, 2007, with the location to be determined.

The Board, each by acclamation, elected the following members as officers for 2006: Rick Rupkey, Sr., President; Jay Richardson, Vice President; Bob Richardson, Secretary; Dwight Eller, Treasurer.

Under Old Business, Member Cox reported he will work prior to the end of the year to update the member directory with the best addresses and phone numbers he can locate.

The Board considered no New Business.

Following Good of the Order, the Board Meeting adjourned at 11:40 a.m.
