IJA Board Meeting- February 18th, 20091. CALL TO ORDER: Chair Chuck Hawley called the meeting to order at 8:04 p.m. EST. 2. ROLL: 3. APPROVAL OF AGENDA: Chuck Hawley moved to
approve the agenda - agenda was approved. 4. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Chuck Hawley moved to
approve the January 14th, 2009 meeting minutes - minutes were approved. 5. REPORTS: (See Below) 6. MOTIONS: 6b. Kim Laird moved for the suspension of the
making of a fest DVD for the 2009 fest in Winston-Salem, NC. Discussion: Due to the previous conversation
regarding the IJA's financial situation this needs some further consideration,
but a decision does need to be made soon. Motion is tabled. 6c. Kim Laird moved for approval of Adria Moskowitz
as World Juggling Day Coordinator for 2009. John Satriano, Ken Farris, Richard Kennison, Chuck Hawley,
and Kim Laird passed the motion. 7b. Kevin Axtell was not present at the meeting
to discuss the YouTube contest to advertise the IJA. There is no further
information at this time. 7c. A Board member needs to make sure we have
a Chief Teller to run elections at the IJA convention and to oversee
Board nominations. Currently, no Board member oversees this position. 7d. Ken Farris will be profiled in this months
eNewsletter. Richard Kennison will be the board member next month. 7e. There was a discussion about IJA members
being able to donate frequent flyer miles to the IJA to assist in
transportation of acts for the festival. Also, the IJA is looking
at other ways to get donations from members to use at the festival
or in the organization. 7f. The question was raised, "how do we
effectively communicate to the membership that the IJA may go broke?"
Every IJA member counts. Board members and officers need to spread
the word. We need more members, more donations. The IJA is a 501c
organization; the Board needs to make sure that information is communicated.
IJA membership is decreasing and the IJA may need to figure out how
to transition to a smaller membership with less money. 8. NEXT MEETING: Next regular BOD meeting will
be held on March 18, 2009 at 8:00 p.m. EDT. 9. ADJOURNMENT: Chuck Hawley moved to adjourn
the meeting at 9:44 p.m. EST.
Respectfully submitted by Janelle Hawley.
