Right now he only has one sponsor; he needs 2 more. I've been in contact with him, & he sounds like he'll fit in very well with the group. He knows he needs2 more sponsors, & he says he's e-mailed a few members, but hasn't received any replies. So, 2 things: 1) Since Mike still needs 2 recommendations, be on the lookout for any incoming e-mails from him, proposing a swap (I've even mentioned that instead of a swap that he offer a RAOK), and please reply to him. 2) Take a few minutes and go to Mike's application on the OBC website, readhis answers to the questions on the application, and leave any comments about his prospective membership. Your New Member dude ================= To: Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:52:59 -0500 From: "George and Susan Vrechek" Subject: OBC Financial Report Periodically the OBC-AC has provided a report of our finances. The following represents activity for the past 3 years. Everything runs through an OBC PayPal account that is administered by OBC Treasurer Bob Donaldson with Joe Isaac as his backup. Activity is reported by PayPal to us and consists of collecting membership dues when needed (which has been infrequent), paying annual web fees, and collecting and remitting a few auction proceeds in honor of deceased members. The activity has been as follows: OBC PayPal Balance Apr 2009 May 2009 Feb 2010 Web hosting fee Feb 2011 Renewal fee Jan 2011 Web hosting fee Jan 2012 Renewal fee Jan 2012 Web Hosting fee Jan 2012 Distelrath auction proceeds Feb 2012 Distelrath donation Current Balance Within the next year we will need to assess members in order to provide funds for web hosting expenses for a few more years at a time. You can see that the dues assessment will be modest in that our annual expenses per member are very modest. George Vrechek
