Business Meeting and Nominations

This month at the meeting we had a different fanfare of coffee cakes and rolls as well as the veggie tray and coffee and juice.

There was a Business Session with Nominations for Officers:
  • President: Gary Johnson
  • Vice-President: Don Longtin
  • Treasurer: Diana Johnson
  • Secretary: Mary Noble

We also went over ways to increase the interest in the club.  We decided to join the Community Arts Council of Kankakee.  With this we can put articles in their Quarterly Newsletter called Connections and we can get a table at their various shows they put on.

Gary gave a demonstration on creating a disk of various groups and how to burn this on to a disk and flash drive, setting up and normalizing the sound in which you make the music the same volume in all the songs. He also showed how to take the 2 second delay out.

MEMBERSHIP HAS ITS PRIVILEGES
Every few months the club will have a drawing for gear (flash drives, mice, etc.). These give-aways are part of the bonus for members. Fran offered to show how this little activity would work by agreeing to be the first to be chosen, winning a 4 gig flash drive. All the rest of the members appreciated her selfless leadership. ;)
