Members present: The meeting was called to order at 9:00 a.m. by Elon "Ubu" Walters. The officer nomination process was discussed. Members were encouraged prior to the meeting to nominate individuals for officer positions and members could nominate themselves. Current officers spoke with the candidates to confirm their acceptance of the nomination and note that this was contingent on the member being 95% certain that they plan to return to Camp for summer, 2009. An electronic ballot was created and sent to all members. This was done in response to a request from members who were interested in voting, and were at Camp this summer, but could not be at the meeting. The goal was to be more inclusive. Presidential candidates Brad Coppel and Seth Frankle than spoke. Ballots were cast. Neil Berlin provided a treasury report.
