A. Gary Isaacs moved to accept report. Sara Chappell 2nd. Vote passed. IV. State Council Report – Dean Chappell

A. Nothing to report
B. Fred Krueger brought up the fact that someone needs to invent an easier way to change handles. (i.e. The ease of changing ropes due to perfect pass switch.)

V. Old Business

A. Website – USAWaterski.com (click on IL). Thank you Chuck Roberts for all your hard work on the website. Chuck requested that all IL tournament scorebooks be sent to him to be put on the website.

VI. New Business

A. Jr. Team – Dick Nock motioned we donate $300. Rose Krueger 2nd. Vote passed

B. Darr Leutz – Discussion on Novice requirements for IL. Would like to see it changed to “Anyone who has not scored a full pass at their minimum speed in a tournament, be able to receive 2nd chance slalom.” (Especially at the State tournament) There was a lot of discussion on this topic. It was decided that a motion was not needed. This decision will be left up to the host club. Since it is possible to sanction a tournament with multiple classes, a separate F class can be added at the discretion of the host club for such skiers. Gary Isaacs – Safety clinic needed

1. Troy and Janet will look into who is certified to hold a clinic.

2. Darr will also check with headquarters

D. Kelly Zoellner – Judges/Scorers clinic also needed

1. Dean will look into this

2. Probably will hold all clinics at the same time – late October in Bloomington.

E. Janet Madden – Don’t forget to buy Jr. Team Regional Raffle tickets

F. Bruce Kunde – Why is the entry fee so high for kids at the State tournament? Discussion led to the recovery of cost for trophies and other expenses the state tournament brings.
