OLD/CURRENT BUSINESS:

I. Holiday Office Park information

According to Peter Snow the contract for the new ownership fell through but that another buyer has stepped forward. The potential buyer is the Neyer Group. Peter Snow will be presenting them with our potential lease agreement.
Once they are under contract to purchase the building we can move ahead with plans to relocate.

II. Web site

The new site is live but there are some glitches that will get worked out within the next few weeks.
There are still lots of work to be done on the site but once the new database is linked in all members will receive an email allowing them to login and update their profiles.

III. Constitution Revision

Now that all of the revisions have been reviewed Carol will be sending a copy electronically to the Board. Soon after the membership will receive it electronically (where possible) and those without email, or those requesting otherwise, will receive a printed copy.

NEW BUSINESS:

I. Blue Wisp

An article in the Cincinnati Enquirer stated that the Wisp might close at the end of the month due to unforeseen expenses with the restaurant portion of the club.
It may be possible that an arrangement can be made with the lease to help.
