Committee Reports:

  1. Membership Meeting Committee: Lowell Crouse thanked everybody who attended today’s meeting and told them the draw they signed up when they came in was for 10 USBC memberships paid for by AAUSBC and to be given away at the meeting.

  2. Youth Committee: Kelly McPartland’s report was included in the packet. Kelly touched on some of the points in his written report.

  3. Publicity Committee: Terri Loneman reminded everybody that we are on Facebook and Twitter. We have 109 Facebook Friends and 9 followers on Twitter. She printed out cards with the Facebook, Twitter and website information for people to take.

  4. 9-Pin Committee Report: Derrick Black reported that the committee is considering changing the 9-pin tournament from a doubles and/or singles tournament with one weekend in every house in our association to a 3 or 4 person team event to be held over 3 or 4 weekends at one of the houses not hosting the association tournament. There would be shift times sent and bowlers would be able to bowl more than once. They are also considering opening it up to bowlers outside of our association as long as they are USBC members. If we did this, we wouldn’t require them to purchase AAUSBC membership.


Unfinished Business:


  1. Ames Area USBC Holiday/Charity Tournament: Jennings reported that we had a great turnout for this tournament. The report was included in the packet.

  2. Ames Area USBC Senior Tournament: Jennings reported that there were fewer entries in this tournament. Those gathering entries told her at the time, that the seniors would rather have money donated to a charity instead of having it go back to the bowlers. The rest of the report was included in the packet.


New Business:

  1. Nominations of officers and directors: Nominating Chairperson Hawkins was excused from the meeting so Arden Schoep stepped in as committee representative. Schoep presented the slate of officers that the nominating committee is recommending for the 2012-13 bowling season. President would be Bryan Carsrud, 1st VP would be Terri Loneman, 2nd VP would be Terri Carriere, 3rd VP would be Jarad Prescott, Story City VP would remain Jo Mortvedt, and Eudune Lund would remain as Jewell VP. Schoep made the motion that we accept the ballot. Lowell Crouse seconded. MCU. Schoep then presented the directors that were up for the 2 year position: Jerry Everett, Patti McCoy, and Arden Schoep. Lyle Jennings and Orv Heintz had also asked to be added to the ballot. A vote was taken and the directors chosen for the 2 year positions will be: Jerry Everett, Patti McCoy, Arden Schoep and Lyle Jennings. Schoep then asked who would be able to attend the Iowa State USBC WBA convention. Terri Carriere, Terri Loneman, Teri Jennings and Jo Mortvedt said they would like to be the delegates and Kandi Burris said she would be an alternate. Cari McPartland made the motion that we accept the delegates and alternate. Bryan Carsrud seconded. MCU. Schoep then asked about the Iowa State USBC BA convention. Jennings, Schoep and Terry Mason we put on the ballot as delegates with Keith Hawkins, Rick Hackett and Bryan Carsrud as alternates. Terri Loneman made the motion to accept the delegates.

Report from the President: Tim Kadolph included his report in the packet. He thanked the board for allowing him to serve as president the past couple of years.

Report from the Association Manager: Teri Jennings included her report in the packet. She did add that Charlie Kutsch, Iowa State USBC BA association manager, is resigning and this is his last year. Also that ISUSBCBA financial Officer is also resigning. Darryl Fremont of Boone has been hired as association manager. No new financial officer has been hired.

Ames Area USBC/Ames Silversmithing/Perfect Games Championship Tournament Results: Cari McPartland included her report in the packet. There was discussion on the instant cash. It was decided that we would keep the instant cash, but revamp the payouts. It was also discussed that the board could put a cap on how much we donate to the tournament and use part of that amount for the instant cash and what isn’t used would then be added to the prize fund. The board will discuss it and make a decision in the fall. We also discussed a 10 pin over average rerate for the tournament. We heard from members for and against doing this. The board will look at it again in the fall. We discussed possibly changing from bowing singles first and then doubles to bowling doubles first and then singles. We also decided that the shift times for next year’s tournament will be changed to allow bowlers to bowl all events in one day. Tournament checks, certificates and patches were distributed. Names were drawn for the Tournament Grand Prizes.
