NOMINATING COMMITTEE
Two Council positions are open for 2023. Also, Nominating Committee currently has only one member, Tim Brown. Need two more Committee members, as well.
OLD BUSINESS
Marilyn Wertman reported on changes to the announcement and reporting of trips to the ACA. Very convoluted process that will likely discourage trip leaders from running trips. Also, the lead time to announce a trip has been changed by the ACA from approximately 20 hours to 72 hours. Asked that Council take up the issue of ACA insurance. Anyone with input or ideas should contact Donna Brisco as soon as possible, as our annual insurance payment is due in November. Members agreed that Council should investigate and make final decision.
NEW BUSINESS
Tim Brown reports the ACA is changing insurance carriers and insurance coverage fee is due by the end of November. Term will run December 1, 2022 to January 31, 2023.
