Once the policy is reviewed and approved by the insurance company, all Club Officers will be required to sign an acknowledgment form and take an online sexual abuse class. Upon approval by the insurance company, the policy will also be included in the new membership packets. New Club Officers who have not completed a background check need to do so ASAP. Background checks will need to be completed by all Club Officers every 2 years. Mike advised that a Mandatory Board Meeting will be scheduled around the 2nd week of June.

Range Officer, Justin Connally had no new updates or issues.

Vice President, Mike Shea discussed the repairs for the walk-around range targets. 17 new cores have been ordered for the targets. Mike is requesting that in addition to the new cores that the club purchase 2 new Delta Mackenzie targets to add to the existing ASA scorable targets. That will allow the club to have 25 new ASA scorable targets. He would like to purchase the Turkey and the Lynx. The cost for both new targets will be $625.00 along with the cost of the new cores will bring the grand total to $935.00. The funds will come from the Club Target Fund. Investment in targets is needed to promote the Club and generate additional funds. A motion was made to allocate the funds. The motion was voted on and passed.
