Player Assistance-

      Karen is concerned at he lack of participation from families who receive player assistance. Karen sent a letter to all families asking them to work the fireworks booth on July 4, 2004 at this time only 3 families have contacted her to work.

DOC-

      5 teams preparing to leave for Idaho, in the future SCA needs to have a point person for travel like this.

      Hoek Camp has begun. Sunday there was a presentation made at SSU. Board members present said they came a way with Hoek emphasizing Philosophy, Communication and Education to make clubs strong. Some liked one particular idea of having a press conference after each game

      There was a sense that perhaps there can be a culture barrier, what is Hoek about, and what was communicated to teams about the Hoek camp. It was decided to add a section on Hoek to the Early Club Evaluation

 U15 girls request to hold a golf tournament as a fundraiser, request is granted

Sue Bolt proxy her vote to Tony Behen

Action Items-

 There was a request to drop fines for missed meetings or allow teams to miss one or two meetings. The request was denied.

 With five teams traveling to one local, very few parents going and needing the teams checked in; it was decided the DOC needed to take procedural responsibility for the club-  Terry motioned to approve to reimburse the DOC estimated $200.00 travel expenses with receipts. Budd seconded, motion carries. This motion goes back to the recommendation that SCA has a point person for travel such as this. SCA also needs to discuss and possibly place in the budget for DOC travel expenditure.

SCA coordinator-
 Danny has received the resignation of Cathy West as Treasurer effective on September 1, 2004. After July 5, Terry and Cindy will be in contact with Danny to help Cathy during this transitional time. If any one knows of someone who is capable of taking on this position please contact Danny.

Danny received a $200.00 donation from the Petaluma Health District to SCA

Danny reported that on behalf of the SCA Board he sent Marja Tarr flowers; she is recovering from surgery after donating one of her kidneys to a friend in need.
