Action Points and Matters Arising •
RF reports that almost all medium male T-shirts have been sold ◦
•
It was agreed that it was likely that everyone who wants an NMC T-shirt already has one, and there wouldn't be a new run until there was an influx of new members or another indication of strong demand
FL proposed that next year the club do more to promote the sticker competition, including a notice with the handbook and presenting the finalists on a display board at the President's Meal ◦
the possibility of another photography competition was raised
•
The issue of selling gear via the NMC Facebook page was discussed and SB proposed the rule that members be allowed to post gear for sale, but that postings be restricted to members
