The meeting was called to order by President Susan Duede, followed by the approval of the minutes  of the  September 25, 2002 Executive Board Meeting, with a few corrections made.  Copies of the Treasurer’s Report were distributed.

Treasurer’s Report: Debbie Steele presented the treasurer’s report, reporting the current balance of $2807.55 Donations were reported from vendors.

Committee Reports: It was reported the donations were generous for the upcoming holiday party, as well signs for the party. It was decided that those who donated, even if not members, would be invited.  A formal invitation will be sent out, and will indicate parking cannot be validated and will indicate places to park.

Old Business– None discussed.

New Business– Discussion over vendors soliciting on KCALL listserv.  Decided that listserv should be a discussion list only.  It was decided to bring up at annual meeting, with motion as recommended by board to have listserv for discussion purposes only.  A reminder that the by-laws will be voted on at meeting if enough people are present (at least 17).

Also discussed that election committee can sent out ballots by e-mail. Responses will be regarding the  whole list of candidates, not picking and choosing, with the deadline being Dec. 15, 2002.

Discussion also ensued on whether or not KCALL should look into disbanding based on lack of responses of late. Important to determine will be what does the membership want from the organization.  Decided that Mike will compose a letter from the board addressing these concerns in order to get feedback from the membership at the annual meeting or respond to Mike to pass on to the board.

---Next meeting will be Thurs., Jan. 16 at 11:45 am, and will be the annual meeting.

---Meeting adjourned at 1:03 p.m.
