Secretary's Report was read and accepted; Mindy Gagner

Treasurer’s Report; Don Collins

New Business; Norm

• The Federation Championship is next week; Tim & Skip are ready to go.  Good luck guys!!
• Our website is incomplete and needs to be revamped.  It’s a complicated situation because Nick Haire has set it up and maintained it all of this time and as a result; he owns it.  Nick no longer has time to take care of it for us.  We need to decide what to do because the sponsors for the FLW/TBF expect to be on our website and Plano has already expressed concern that they are not on ours.  Other sponsors will complain soon if we don’t do something, the question is do we offer to buy the sight from Nick or do we get a different host and start over?  Bill Spence offered to talk to Nick but Norm said he will call him.  We don’t want any problems or hard feelings.  Chittenden County BassMasters told us that they just started a website of $98.  We can look into what they did if we need to start over.
• Norm has not heard from Quantum yet but expects to come back from Nationals with a pair of SolarBat for each State Team member.
• Tom Coloutti did well at Guntersville, he took eighth place.
• The Junior World Championship is in Hot Springs, Arkansas July 30-August 4.  Kyle Demeritt and Garrett Keefe are the two Juniors from Vermont that will be attending.

• Meeting adjourned at 7:38pm.

Respectfully submitted, Mindy Gagner
