 Presidents Report:President Wegner turned the floor over to Tony Campos at this time. Tony discussed the Web site he put together in April 2008 for the bowlers. This Web site can be viewed at CDAbowling.com. He is putting in the weekly high scores which he has to copy and input by hand from the paper. He is not being paid for this Web site, which cost about $100.00 per year. He would like to see the Web site promoted more at the houses and by the Association. He also discussed how it would be a good idea to have someone ready to take over the site.  With the City Tournament coming up, any and all information for this can be put on the Web site along with the scores, etc. once the tournament is in progress. He will also put the minutes and meeting agenda on the site.  President Wegner mentioned how the site would be a good way to keep history of the local Association. It would be nice to see some youth information on the site. Tony has not been provided any of this information to date. Director McConnaghy will take information to River City Lanes youth and Director Prescott will take to Sunset.  
Unfinished Business:Travel case information is tabled to the next meeting. This will now be removed from the agenda as this is more of a State issue. 
Historical Committee: No report, note above information. 
Youth Committee:Tim could not make the meeting but e-mailed the following information, which was read by Association Manager Werner.  1. I have been in contact with Vern from Sunset and he has expressed that they would like to advertise to the kids that Sunset will offer one free hour of bowling to anyone who wants to come in at a set time during the week and bowl with a coach.  We tried to get this going last year but I was unable to commit because of my work schedule, but now I have a fairly flexible schedule and can give a bit more time.  Sounds like what we have planned is I will be down at the bowling alley at a set time each week and any kid can come in and bowl with me and I will work with them free of charge.  Needless to say I'm pretty sure this only applies to Sunset Youth League bowlers. 2.  I am also working with Pattie Dudley from Spokane who runs the JBT'S over there on putting together a youth/adult Swiss tournament.  They have had them in the past over in Spokane and they have always been a huge success.  It started out as a memorial tournament for a youth bowler that died about 10 years ago or so and they have not held the tournament the last couple of years due to issues with the family that the tournament was originally for.  The first year the expense money was donated to the family of the youth bowler that passed to help with expenses.  Over the following years the money that was raised was donated to various charities and local families that were struggling.  The year I returned to bowling after my transplant, I actually participated in the event and without me knowing it they donated the money to my family to help with my transplant expenses.  They haven’t had the tournament in a couple of years and so Pattie called me and asked if I would be interested in putting it back together and I jumped on the opportunity as fast as I could.  We are still getting all the details put together and I will keep everyone posted.  As soon as we can get everything figured out I will email you Terry and we can get the word out to the rest of the board if anyone would like to put a team together with some youth bowlers.  In the previous years there was always a waiting list for this tournament and I hope that will be the case again this year, but I will give plenty of notice if anyone would like to participate.  If anyone has questions feel free to email me! : )  
City Tournament: President Wegner has met with Vern from Sunset to discuss squad times.Director Lane has made corrections and will have entry forms at the next meeting for everyone to review and bless. President Wegner would like to have entry forms in the houses the first of the New Year. Sharon Simpson will do brackets again with Director Jacobson overseeing this process.  
New Business: We will try to get pictures done at the next meeting so we can go the house boards up dated.   The next meeting is set for December 29, 2009 at 7:00 PM at the Public Works Facility at 800 Public Works Way, in Post Falls. This meeting will be used to review and finalize City Tournament information. 

Meeting was adjourned at 7:48PM
