South
Carolina Treasure and Artifact Association - November Minutes November 28, 2015
The
SCTAA met on November 23, 2015 with 29 in attendance including new member, Mark
Lightfoot.
Reports:
Bill Guthke called Randy to let us know he has lung cancer. We signed a Get Well card and Randy delivered
it on Tuesday. Robert Weaver asked for
the by-laws to be amended to clarify the issue of Lake Lure hunt fees being
applied to next year’s dues if a member finds he cannot attend the hunt. Currently, the by-laws do not address the
issue. Years back, it seems no refunds
or adjustments were allowed.
The
program was a turkey shoot using darts and a dart board. Chris Phillips won first prize, a turkey and
Jimmy Cochran was second and won a pumpkin pie.
September
treasury ended with a balance of $ 757.92.
We collected: raffle - $82; donation can - $13.01; 2016 memberships - $525; sale of decals - $4.50. We converted $5 in
half dollars to birthday coins. The November deposit is $624.51. The amended
closing balance (discrepancy noted) in the checking account is now $
1,377.43. We also keep $30 cash in
small bills set aside to make change.
