Minutes

Meeting Date and Location: Red Robin on 03/08/08 at 8:30 – 10:15 PM.

Attendance:  All five officers were present for the entire meeting.

Agenda:

  • Review of Bylaws
  • Review of Code of Conduct
  • Other issues that need to be discussed
  1. This meeting was primarily to amend the Phoenix Coyotes Booster Club (PCBC) Bylaws and Code of Conduct
  2. Most changes were approved at the meeting.  Some revisions must be made to get agreement from all officers.  Heather will make the revisions and send out to everyone via email to approve. Once the changes are approved, the website will also be updated.
  3. The membership season is different from the term of office for the Board. The membership  season is from July 1st through June 30th of the following year, which aligns with the fiscal year for the club. The term for a Board member is from the elections in March through the elections in the following March. This gives the new Board three months to develop the interests of the Club for the next membership season.
  4. The Booster polo shirts will be approximately $24 if we get 12 or more orders (we have reached this number). An email will go to all members with a link to the website to see how many other people are interested in purchasing a polo shirt.
  5. The Board will decide on all points for events and items.
  6. Membership rewards can be picked up at the time they are earned year round.  All items are available at the table during games, at most player and viewing parties and other events.  This will continue during the summer as well.
  7. There will be a new database for each dues season to track all members and a new tracking sheet for membership points.
  8. Officers do not have to remain at the Club table for the entire two hours before the game. Each Board member should check in at the table no later than 30 minutes before the start of the game to see if there are any issues of discussion that need to be addressed. The Vice President is in charge of setting up and maintaining all materials for the table.
  9. Board members should attend as many events as possible. If not able to attend an event, must inform another Board member.
  10. There will hopefully be an article on the Season+ membership in an upcoming Tape to Tape.  It has been submitted and will run if there is space.
  11. The end of season event for the PCBC needs to be organized with Sarah and Don from the Phoenix Coyotes.
  12. The possibility of membership cards for Booster members will be addressed for next season.
  13. Possible fundraiser was addressed for a keychain with the Club logo inside a piece of acrylic. Selling calendars will go through Sarah, and possibly selling Favorite Player Buttons could go through the Phoenix Coyotes also.
  14. There will be a fundraiser at Wildflower restaurant on March 26th from 5-8 PM if we get approval from the Coyotes. 15% of dinner service will be earned for the Club. Heather will send an email to all members with all information. If this goes well, the Club could do a pancake breakfast in the future. There will be at least one auction done at the restaurant also.
  15. A reminder email about elections at the March 22nd meeting will be sent out a few times to encourage attendance.
  16. Club merchandise is for sale to members only. Pucks are $5, long sleeve shirts are $10 and hats are $15. These items will be available at the table.
  17. 2008-09 season renewal will begin in March. There is a possibility of getting a mini helmet as a bonus for joining early. There will be a Season+ special starting March 1st and going through all of next season for a $10 charge over the regular price. The $10 will count in 07-08 season and the remaining will be counted in 08-09 funds.
  18. Beth Champie Award will be for the player that has been shown the most dedication to the fans. There will be an online survey from all players that are on the current roster for all members to vote.
  19. Saturday, March 22nd will be the meeting for the Booster Club Board elections for next season. Since the Treasurer position was refilled during the season, it will be open for election as well as the vacated secretary position.
  20. The Membership Chair position will be replaced with a Liaison position that can be held by another Board member at the same time as their own position.
  21. Mueller bobble heads are coming; can get puck and do another basket for auction.
  22. Game Night with the Coyotes will have four Board members in attendance. Members will earn 10 membership points.
  23. On Tuesday, March 11, 2008 there will be a Tyson Nash basket auctioned at the table for his birthday. Heather will have a giant card for members to sign as well.

The next Booster Club meeting is scheduled for 03/22/08 at 3:00 PM in a Jobing.com arena Tower Suite
