                             MAY 15, 2006

 

 

Members present:  Bonnie Keene, Joy Mulford, Brendan Carroll, Jordan Docter, David Bartholomew, April Stutts, Brock Bassett, Dee Hunt, Karrie Docter, David Hall.

 

Bonnie Keene called the meeting to order.  Prayer requests and praises were shared.  The meeting was opened with prayer by Bonnie.

 

The minutes were read and approved.  The financial report was reviewed with a balance of $844.89.  Current agape bills of $322.40 were discussed and approved.  These bills comprised what needed to be purchased for Flight #14 which had not been donated.

 

Concerning Flight #13 at Shepherd’s Pasture:  David Hall motioned to concede

past deposits on record ($630.00 dep. on first flight inasmuch as two flights had been cancelled on very short notice, and use the additional deposit of $1,000.00  from the last Boy’s Flight #14 in full for Flight #13.  Motion was discussed and passed.  Bonnie also noted that on our last statement from Shepherd’s Pasture it stated that this next flight’s lodging would be free as per contract after the 6th flight.

 

It was also discussed to remove the storage trailer from its present location and park it at Caney Lake as that would be more convenient.  Brock has already received approval for this.  The tires on the trailer were also addressed, and Brock offered to pull it out and get new tires if necessary to make it highway safe.  He also offered to pull it to its new location after the flight.  Dee Hunt offered to clean out the trailer while it was empty after Sponsor’s Hour for Flight #13.  David Bartholomew offered his 3 ton jack.

 

Policies dealing with background checks were again discussed.  Bonnie had talked with Nashville rep from the Upper Room about these and shared this information.

 

Karrie reported on Flight #13.  There were 8 caterpillars as of 5/15/06 with possibility of more to come.  Team positions were discussed, candles for weekend.   Brock offered to provide for the ice cream party. Brendan moved that the board approve the official “go-ahead” for this flight.  Seconded by Jordan.  Motion passed.

 

David reminded us of all the reasons we had decided to stick with the February date for the boy’s flights inasmuch as Emmaus had accommodated us with changing their men’s and women’s flights so the training weekends would not conflict with each other. 

 

Tabled to later date was possible Chrysalis 5 year reunion.

 

Brock reported on the Caney Lake facility with price sheet in detail.  Having flights at Caney would possibly help reduce the cost per person for the weekend.  He was to check on the February dates for the boy’s flight.

 

Upon contacting all those persons whose names had been placed in nomination for the upcoming board elections for this month, many had to decline due to other conflicts.  Therefore, in consideration of this, the board moved to accept those who said “yes” to serving and voted by acclamation to accept these as our newly elected board members starting in June as this filled the number of positions needed. 

 

New board members:  Bryan Hawthorne, Jonathan Beck, Patricia Bates, Sammy Gryder, Elizabeth Guice, Jake Anderson, Forrest Stutts, and Garrett West.

David Hall moved to announce these new members at the May Gathering noting that anyone interested in serving on the Chrysalis Board in the future to please let any board member know.  Seconded by Joy.  Motion passed.

 

The next board meeting will be June 19th at which time a new lay director and spiritual director will be elected by the board to take office at the end of the meeting. 

Jordan moved that the meeting be adjourned.  April seconded.  David Hall closed with prayer.

 

Prayerfully submitted,

 

Joy Mulford
