Nineteen people attended the meeting, which was held at the Moore’s house since we didn’t have access to the school.

In the absence of our President, Jim Price, Kristine Martin, First Vice President, called the meeting to order at 7:15 p.m., and introduced the night’s speaker, Trieste Lockwood from Virginia Inter-Faith Power and Light, who spoke against lifting the Virginia ban on uranium mining.

Following Ms. Lockwood’s presentation, the business meeting began. 

• Last month’s meeting minutes were accepted.
• Mike Moore handed out a summary treasurer’s report.
• Mike then proceeded to discuss the proposed 2011 budget which has not yet been approved by the general membership.
• The biggest change in the budget is the cost of insurance.  It went up about $50.
• Pool expenses – last year we gave the pool $8,000.  In this budget, we have set aside $4,000.
• We have set aside $6,500 for the pool membership stimulus plan.  This is enough to cover 65 families.
• Income estimates are about the same as last year.

• Kristine volunteered to help with clean-up around the brick wall.
