    3. Springfield LTC/extra league 2017-18
    Jim Jasinski, Director

    We discussed the possibility of adding a ltc and beginner league during 2017-18 program year at springfield.  If we can get the extra day of ice, I would like to see a more formal presentation of the ltc dates and flow into an extra instructional league vs. adding no extra ice, advertise  ltcs up front in the first 4 weeks of our currrent league to fill 1-8 spots on the 4th sheet.  Maybe rethink how the spring league is run, from top to bottom?


    4. Strategic Planning Discussion
    Bruce Clingan, Director/President
    45 minutes

    4.1 Membership

    From November Meeting: This may morph into what we would like to see membership look like next year.

    Membership Discussion:

    • The Board would like to try to focus on creating more value for and increasing ownership of current members.  Other than ice time, the club doesn't interact a lot together.

        1. Social activities outside of the club are important, and with a Social Chair in place, we will look in increase the frequency of get togethers.

        2. Increase consistency of communication to club members (see Marketing for more details)

        3. Continue ongoing discussion of finding key members to transition into more functional roles within the organization to both relieve burden of the leadership and provide a role for members who would like to contribute to the growth of the club.

        4. Find additional ways to create further value for members.

    To Do:

    • By next meeting, each member should try to think of at least one possible value add for discussion to help encourage membership and make it easier to facilitate discussions on how cool it is to be a part of the club.  No wrong answers here.... I don't think.

    • Coordinate with Mel to get a social event on the calendar before Spring League starts.

     

    Could/should these needs and desires be forwarded to membership committee for BOH to let them take ownership of these.  How much control does the board offload onto that membership committee.


    5. Build Our House Update(s)
    Bruce Clingan, Director/President
