Executive Committee Meeting Minutes

ASIS SF Bay Area Chapter
Executive Committee Meeting
Juniper Networks
April 14, 2003

Present:
Chair Brad Minnis, CPP; Vice-Chair, Patrick Sharkey, CPP; Treasurer, Curtis Given, CPP; Secretary, Larry Reid;

Law Enforcement Appreciation
It was agreed by all that the Law Enforcement Appreciation event was a huge success and well received by all members. The only remaining items were payment of some outstanding invoices yet to be submitted by Art Lesser.

May Seminar
Patrick Sharkey CPP reported the event is ahead of last year’s schedule. 56 booths are committed to date, with 52 booths being paid. Patrick will be making telephone contact with last year’s participants that have not reserved a booth for this year. Also, Patrick will coordinate the updating of the Chapter’s banner with the new logo.

Golf Tournament
Larry Reid obtained $500.00 deposit from the Chapter Treasurer for the Spring Valley golf course.

Newsletter
The new printable newsletter format was reviewed and discussed. The newsletter was very appealing and should be well received by all local members. Local member Ramon Silano has donated his time and is responsible for the re-vamping of the newsletter.

Paid advertising spots were discussed by the executive committee. After some discussion, it was agreed the chapter should charge $100 a month for a business card sized ad, with a six month minimum. A two month discount would be given if the space is taken for twelve months.

Miscellaneous
Brad Minnis CPP received a Plaque from ASIS International awarding our Chapter for last year’s work related to the I.B. Hale. The plaques will be displayed in this year’s Seminar & Exhibits booth and later presented to Kathy Goelkel (I.B. Hale) and Steve Duell (Newsletter).

John McNamara is the new Chapter Historian. John will be looking into consolidating, organizing and storing the Chapter’s records in a local storage unit.

Patrick Sharkey CPP reported the need to submit all committee records to the Committees subweb (http://www.sfasis.org/sfbacomm/) for future use. The idea is to create a guide to follow on our yearly events, instead of recreating them every year. The Committees subweb is in place and has some committee information and planning from last year.

Brad Minnis CPP was informed by ASIS that the Allen J. Cross Award was being kicked off this June. The award, being underwritten by PPM 2000, provides 25 scholarships for the annual CPP review course. Only one applicant per Chapter may be submitted. The applications are being accepted via fax from Noon, June 2, 2003 through June 22, 2003.

Next Executive Council Meeting
Wednesday, May 7, 2003, 1100 at Symantec, Cupertino.

Respectfully submitted by
Lawrence Reid
SFBA Secretary
