*Secretary’s Report:  Mike Collins made a motion to approve the minutes as distributed with a 2nd from Dave Farber, all were in favor.
*Treasurer’s Report:  There were no checks written since the last meeting. Current checking account balance is $4400. There is $20,000 in CDs. There was a letter received about an old account (Hamilton) that has a small balance, but has been inactive for over 5 years. Jeff will look into this and take any appropriate action.
*Midget’s:  2 more players have signed up for the 16U (state bound) and 18U teams. So far there are no coaches for the 16U team, though it is possible that high school coaches may step in and coach the team. There are coaches for the 18U team.
*Golf tournament:  We have 20 teams to date. Wendy Lansing has volunteered her time to help out.  
*Corporate Fundraising:  The brochure was mailed out for tournament sponsors and the golf tournament..  
*ETEAMZ:  We will try and get a room that has an internet connection for the next meeting so that Bob can do a demo of the ETEAMZ features.
*Registration: Jeff would like the registration packet to be mailed out by the end of July or first of August at latest (this packet is separate from the independents). There was some discussion on keeping the independent tryout fee separate from the registration fee and be non-refundable. A motion to do this was made by Mike Collins and seconded by Wendy Lansing. All were in favor. 
The birth year 96 team registration is still up in the air, but tryouts are expected to be at the same time as the birth year 94 team which is planned for the first week of September.
*Referees:  Glen Carroll was asked to describe the referee process. Basically, one group continues from the prior year. This years rollover group is a little smaller that previous years. There are two sixteen year olds – good for under Bantam age teams. There are 3 first year Bantams. Individuals must be second year Peewee to be eligible to referee. You must also go to the USA Hockey all day clinic. To referee Midgets you must be level 3. Glen will put together a presentation on ideas of improving our referees’ skill level.
*Misc: The Stanley Cup is expected to be at Colgate on August 11th.

*Next meeting:  August 13 2007 at 6pm

Respectfully,

Bob Burbank
