• Meeting called to order at 10am.
• Welcomed 3 new members.
Voted on how to handle classes effective 1/1/2015:
- ½ class fee is due at the time you sign up for a class-approved and passed
- $50 of the class fee is non-refundable
- Members have first right in booking class vs non-members
- Lottery only if we have to as a last resort. Expectation is that we talk with each other re-scheduling and make all attempts to work out class scheduling to benefit all.
- Need for lottery will be identified when we discuss booking the teacher and their availability
- Out of state requests for attending classes will be charged an additional $50
