o    Recap

§    2007 Schedule

The revised schedule was circulated for review and comment. The problems were caused by need for re-paving Laguna in June and the August date was taken by the county. After a lot of re-arrangement a new schedule having one less event was prepared.

§    Annual Meeting Agenda

Mike Smith presented a schedule for the annual meeting for the afternoon. The board discussed the idea of training days for various specialties. It was decided to have two training days – one focusing on T&S and Tech and the other on F&C and Emergency. The T&S/Tech session would be in the San Ramon area. The F&C/Emergency session would be at Infineon in February at Mike Smith’s shop at Infineon.
