as more interviews are conducted from area schools.

to discuss the summer football clinics being held at area
schools on Jan. 23.
1.
Coach
Duncan expressed a desire that Greg Ransom have overall
responsibility with regards to providing officials to the
clinic so he only has to worry about one contact point
versus several. We are okay with this approach.
2.
SLOA wants
to have sole responsibility for providing officials at
Parkway West. Here’s why: we want to develop a program for
our 1-5 year officials to gain on-field experience under the
watchful eye of veteran officials. I can explain in more
detail as to the how’s and why’s at the coming meeting.
3.
As we
previously discussed, SLOA to be compensated for providing
officials per your current agreement with Coach Duncan. Our
understanding this is $300 per field.
4.
Design a
joint training session during the clinic geared to HS rules
and mechanics.
5.
Explore
options/roles when or if this clinic expands to more
teams at other area sites.
Bruce Hook
noted that he had received considerable complaints on the
2009 banquet, that the numbers were down considerably, and
new venue should be considered. A banquet Committee was
formed with Don Meyer as chairman, Pat Steele, Gordon
Aronoff, and Bruce Hook to seek ideas to improve our
banquet.
Miscellaneous Items: Board discussed how we could build on
the Bob Granda Annual Blood Drive. Don Meyer will approach
other official groups to check their support and Gordon
Aronoff will approach the phone company to gain their
support. Don will report back to the Board in April
