CNS Directors Meeting, March 11, 2005

Attendance:
Teth Cleveland (President), Peter, and Chris Hayes (Treasurer) via speaker phone.

Minutes:

Note: If these minutes are not up to our normal standards it is because the CNS secretary could not attend, and these minutes were assemble by the president using notes jotted in the margin of his printed agenda.

- AGM planning, progress reports
AGM planning is progressing well. The executive will meet one week before the AGM to work out the details and to put together a Power Point presentation. An amateur bouldering video will be shown (hopefully projected on a big screen.) and there may be an Ice climbing slide show. The AGM will be the first opportunity to buy boulderfest tickets.

- Review decisions made last year re: Bolderfest, BolderFest planning

1. Payment upfront – mail in payment along with printed copy of email verifying reservation. There will also be a drop off point for cash for those who do not have checking accounts. Teth will check to see if Sport Nova Scotia can be the drop-off location for cash payments.

2. Members’ fee at $30, but increase non-members’ fee to $40.

3. Registration – CNS members should have a 48 hour period to sign up before non-CNS members – however, also noted that CNS membership forms must be available at the same time in order that individuals could also join CNS at the same time (and then sign up for boulderfest).

4. Latrine – noted that when we hand out zero impact information, we could also remind people to use the latrines

5. Door prizes procedure – Instead of drawing for door prizes, it was suggested that prizes be given out for categories such as best sunburn, bleeting hands award, biggest appetite, hardcore award, etc. with a judge assigned for each category.

6. Shelter – it was decided that this should be available each year – bring a tarp, and bring ropes and trad gear to facilitate set up

- Gear Storage - Is Young St Mini Storage a viable option?
Voted against keeping gear at Ground Zero as the gear would not be accessible in the mornings. Email votes by absent board members were counted to make quorum. Did not have enough votes to make quorum regarding Young St Mini Storage. Still would like to get a price for a location with 24 hour access. (Does the site in Bears Lake have small unites?)

- Replacing bolts at eagles nest - Where did this effort leave off a few years ago?
Still waiting for more information on this issue.

- CBHNP access issue. - Warden Sheldon Lambert has been assigned to work with James. Teth gave update on status and agreed to contact James to make sure he was still available. (James has been contacted since the meeting and is ready to go. Sheldon contacted Teth and James via email and is ready to get things going. We are now just waiting for the snow to melt.)

- We are again sponsoring the Nova Scotia Nature Trust’s climbathon fund-raiser.
CNS is donating: 1) a couple CNS Tshirts, 2) memberships, 3) a spot for two at the Dover Island Boulderfest

- Sport Lead certification: Do we tackle this year?
Our Sport climbing director did not make the meeting. Our Trad climbing director suggested that it might be fun to tell her we had decided in her absence not to do it. It was decided that the joke would not go over vary well. There were not enough members to vote on the issue, so it will be addressed in a future meeting.

Storage Unit

Postby Zamboni » Mon Mar 14, 2005 3:31 pm

I have a storage unit on clifton street ( Safe Guard Public Storage ) that is paid for by the company I work for. They have 24hr access, and small units. I'm not sure what the fee's are, but they are run by the same people that run Metro storage.
