I've had a busy week with family visiting and have not put a lot of thought into this DRAFT agenda. If there is anything you'd like to add or correct for this agenda please get back to me before 12:00 on Tuesday the 3rd. We will be holding our election for HARC officers at this meeting. Only active members with current dues paid for the 2025 year will be eligible to vote. Our current active member roster totals 35 individuals. The quorum needed for us to elect new board members is 11 active members. We will need 11 HARC members present for this meeting to vote. Please try to make the meeting so we do not have to figure out how to vote by email or wait till January to vote for new board members. Regarding nominations for the HARC board: I will be happy to serve as president for another term. I feel like I am still figuring things out and would like to make a little more progress. I'd also like to nominate Gene K6PCS as vice-president, Fiday W6FRI as secretary and Richard KN6RK as treasurer. If anyone has other folks they'd like to nominate please get back to me by 12:00 on Tuesday so I can add those names to the agenda.

HARC votes in new board members in December and we will try to do this at this meeting. Currently a quorum stands at 16 active members. (Membership standing is tied to dues being paid for the current fiscal year of 2025.) If due to a lack of a quorum we can not vote in new board members at the meeting we will need to continue the voting by email. If you know already that you will not be able to attend the meeting in person or via Zoom feel free to vote anytime between now and the the 17th of December. We should be able to collect the votes of at least 16 active members by then. Our current slate of nominees are: Friday Ululani W6FRI for Secretary Richard Kern KN6RK for Treasurer Gene Bass K6PCS for Vice Precident Randy Terra KN6NSK for President If anyone would like to nominate someone else for one of these positions or would like to hold one of these positions themselves, please speak up by the time of the meeting tomorrow. Again, if you want to cast your vote via email go ahead. Also remember that only active dues paying members can vote and we do still have a few members who routinely participate in club activities who are not current on their dues. I will try to reach out to those members.
