Dear Board,
I am attaching the Financial Report submitted by Treasurer Miriam Harrington for your review. This is on the agenda to be approved tonight.
In addition, two other items I am adding to the agenda—
1. Committee Chair for the Over/Under game (if this board decides to have one). We also need to find a date.
2 Naming for the donation to our district for the Long Beach Regional. We can name one game. Mike Marcucci said it is usually a deceased prominent member of our unit from the past year, however we have 10 members we have lost in the past year. I would like your thoughts on this but we can certainly just go with Pasadena-San Gabriel Unit 559.
See you tonight.
For conversations related to the unit 559 board, we have an email list
-- what was known in the old days as a "listserv".
To send an email to everyone on the board, address it to
<unit559board(a)bridgemojo.com>. If that address is in your To: Cc: or
Bcc: fields, everyone on the board will receive a copy.
(That's not guaranteed -- I have no control over what individual spam
filters might do to incoming email.)
If you email the list from a different email address, it might be "held
for moderation." Only email from the known member addresses will be
forwarded automatically.
So be careful! If you reply to a list email, it will most likely be
copied to everyone else on the list. If you want to have a private email
conversation, be sure to address the email privately.
Best regards,
Mojo

Dear Board and Board-to-Be,
Our first Board meeting as a new Board will be this Monday, March 4 at 7PM via Zoom. Hopefully MoJo can set up the Zoom and send out the link that day. At that meeting, we will take care of the following business:
1. Appointment of Officers
2. Appointment of Committee Chairs
3. Committee Members
I will be sending out an agenda on Friday. IN the meantime, I have attached the By Laws and the Standing Rules to familiarize you with the requirements of each position. We will have nominations from the floor for the officers and committee chairs and then the full board will vote on each one. If you have any questions ahead of time, I will try and answer them.
I would request during the meeting, since there will be 12 of us, that you mute yourself unless you are speaking to the group or we are taking a vote.
Current Board, I will be resending you the minutes from the last meeting along with hopefully a financial report (Miriam??). You may notice that I have not discussed the Amended ByLaw s. I have decided to pull these off the table for now because it is in conflict with our current election procedures and i want the new Board to correct that problem.
Dear Board,
Attached please find the agenda for Monday’s Zoom meeting at 7 PM. MoJo will send out a link on Monday. Richard, I hope that you can be present to conclude Old Business and then you can leave the meeting.
I reconciled the list with Miriam this morning. We currently have 27
pairs (13.5 tables) signed up. It's fully reasonable to expect that to
climb to 15-16.
Notable among the list are several pairs of new players from my classes
and novice games, including one who may be playing in their first
duplicate. We're going to emphasize welcoming behavior, and particularly
NOT CRITICIZING PARTNER during the game. And I'm talking about the A
flight players. (I need to have a conversation with Madhu.)
All of you should have accounts on RSVPBridge, so you can see the
attendance list at this link: https://rsvpbridge.com/events/5604

Just a few comments—
Mojo is ordering and picking up pizza
Angela is bringing salad
Richard is bringing a cake and cake plates.
Mojo has adequate plates and utensils for the pizza and salad.
Lisa is bringing sodas.
Can someone bring water or another drink?
Alsowe will be giving out the life master pins, mini mckinney medals and ace of clubs certificates (hopefully—the ACBL said they mailed them to me yesterday)
The game is free of charge to all players with a max of 16 tables.
Anything else?? How many reservations do we have currently, Miriam?

OK, I have heard from 5 out of 7 in support of this so let’s donate $500 to the District Regional and I will tell Mike Marcucci to make his poster. Thanks all.
