            d. Annual Meeting 2000: A discussion was held concerning the host club of last year's State shoot allowing dinner to be served prior to the TSCA Annual Meeting causing the Annual Meeting to be cancelled. No offices were up for election and no new business was needed, but a disruption to the timetable was inconvenient.

Skip seconded. Motion carried.

            e.

                        ii. Board sends a slate of candidates to all TSCA Members 45 days prior to the State Shoot. Ballot is on a postcard, postage paid, so that TSCA Members do not have to pay postage to mail in the ballot.

                        iii. No ballots will be available at the State Shoot as it is deemed too hard to control in the limited time & manpower available at the State Shoot (ie., duplicate ballots submitted).

8. Adjournment: Bob motioned to adjourn, Annette seconded, Motion carried. Meeting adjourned.

Presented the Board with letter from State of Texas reinstating the Texas Sporting Clays Association as a corporation. Initial Franchise Tax Report was missing and suspended our corporate privileges. Treasurer has filed all paperwork and late fees.
New Business:
Texas State Shoot Trophies.

Met with Bill Bacon and Connie at America Shooting Centers to discuss the trophies that the TSCA will provide.

Question was asked how much the entry fees would be reduced since the TSCA was now paying for the trophies that was included in their bid. Bill and Connie pointed out that the entry fees were already lower than San Angelo�s State Shoot as well as the Browning/Briley Shoot. Steve reiterated that ASC planned to spend x number of dollars in their bid and now that TSCA was paying for those trophies, that monies needed to be returned to the shooter. Connie brought up that they have already received entries and the fees. Gaylen suggested that in lieu of refunds, that ASC put the money towards door prizes. Bill would not commit to anything but promised to look at it. Steve is to follow up with Bill.

Landmark Graphics can continue to sponsor the 5-Stand event, however, the logo must be reasonably sized. Logos are not allowed on Main Event trophies.
