Cal Band: A discussion was held on whether to hold a Cal
Straw hat
Band event this year. Mary reported Bob Calonico has
reluctantly
agreed to come, but is really concerned about getting the band
back
to Berkeley after a long trip. The board decided to let them off
the
hook this year. Mary will notify Bob.
Student Reception. The student party was a big
success. Nine
freshmen, and one junior attended.
A few of them swam in the pool, but most of the time was spent
getting acquainted. We will do it again next year and include
this
year’s class.
We would like to have board members ‘adopt’ a
freshman/ Mary,
Sue and Larry will research addresses, so we can sent them cards
and
treats.
Notes from Leadership Meeting.
Scholarships
Dick attended the CAA meeting in Berkeley. CAA gives three
kinds
of scholarships; Achievement Award, Leadership, and Equity. We
give
the Leadership Scholarship. Our endowment is held by CAA.
Vera, Ron and Jeff met to
create a proposal for a Northern
C’s scholarship to be awarded to a Shasta college Student
transferring to Berkeley as a Junior. Larry suggested that
it also
be made available to sophomores. It will not include students
for
College of the Siskiyous at this time.
The scholarship will be published and awarded through the
Financial
Aid program at Shasta College.
MOTION: It was moved seconded and approved
that Northern C’s
set up a $1000. scholarship to be awarded to a selected
candidate
from Shasta College upon acceptance to, and enrollment at CAL.
The board instructed Vera, Jeff and Ron to set this up with Shasta
College.
Dick said the CAA had indicated
that they approve of this and
may even help.
Speakers
CAA has trouble getting speakers. We should arrange for our own.
Other Clubs
Other clubs are facing similar issues. We are in pretty good
shape.
Web Page
The CAA web page is hard to navigate. They will post our
information, but one will need a password to access it.
Mary
volunteered to make sure our information is posted, but we have
to
tell her what we want on it. She will also help with our
Shasta.com
site.
Speaker from Bear Treks K.J. is problematic. No
other discussion
College Recruitment Chris S. will do the on-line training at COS
.
Sue will contact Buffy Tanner at College Options and Jan Erikson
at
the Library to find out about College Options.
Financial Status The Northern C’s endowment was at 46,522
on
3/31/09. The board believed it was around $90.000. Dick
will get an
update from Ron. Our event funding is available. Dick will
check
with Ron for 2009 Riverview receipts and perhaps we can be
reimbursed. We need to check to make sure we have CAA funding
for
the 2010 dinner.
