  • Need to think about 2 positions for soccer director. Size is expanding. One director to handle younger kids (pre-k, 1,2) and one for the older kids( 2 different leagues and training referees, and organization of teams) plus travel teams. Hiring referees and handling volunteers, camps, tournaments, and coaching…need another position. (Would have to change by-laws and rewrite responsibilities)

V. Public Comments
VI. New Business / Make a co-soccer director? Ed will read through by-laws.
When we put things on the Agenda – Remember what you are delegated to do. If you can not do it, let Ed or Camilla know.
Sports – even years, Executive positions on odd years. Mark each term as 2 years.
Need a Just-in-case VP – Best in roll to step up would be Soccer Director.
VII. Adjourn / The meeting was adjourned at 8:55pm.
Next Meeting / May 04, 2017 at 7pm?
