Presentation of the recognition awards at the dinner was discussed. A few members were added to the recognition list.
Other: Other meeting discussions included: Offering a general license class and finding a location to hold classes, financials, adding the ICE plan to the website, ICE plan is also on github.com/w5ngu, website corrections, distributing the unclaimed DCARA shirts, status of donations needing inventory and future auction, and email addresses for officers/leadership instead of using their personal email addresses.
