Old meetings

Executive Board meeting

The Executive Board discussed Catalina issues. The board decided against placing a limit on the number of people going to Catalina, though with more than 50 people going this year, it will be crowded. The Executive Board discussed the value of Cen Cal. The board could not reach agreement on whether Cen Cal has any value, but they are willing to consider suggestions. The Executive Board formed a committee to suggest methods of increasing diver safety at Alacosta trips.

Rule changes

The Executive Board meeting was exciting this month. The board made and suggested a number of changes to the standing rules. The Executive Board changed Article I, section 1 of the bylaws, from:

1.

The principal office of the Corporation is hereby fixed and located at Mosswood Recreation Center, 3612 Webster Street, Oakland, California 94611.

to:

1.

This is the address of John Beland and Janet Parkins.
