OLD BUSINESS (w/Motions)
Motion 1: Contest Fees to Judges in 2021(didn’t have quorum motion was discussed and will be brought back to board at later date.)

To cover, at least partially, this added cost fees will be assessed and collected as follows:
Print Contest:
Two dollars for judging/critique and two dollars for shipping contingency per print. Paid in cash with the submission.
Digital Contest:
Annual fee, paid online for the entire year: $25.00. Treasurer will have online verification available for the Digital Chair to verify the member’s status.
Accommodations for first year members?
Judging/Critique fee per contest: $100.00, all inclusive.
Annual Contests fees:
Print given ticket to banquet and guest
Digital: No fee since no comments or critique
Budget shortfalls are covered in budget
