				<description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;First Coast Summer Swim League&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Minutes April 27, 2010&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The regular meeting of the First Coast Summer Swim League was held on Tuesday, April 27, 2010 at Jacksonville Golf &amp;amp; Country Club. Members present were Roy Deary - Oakleaf Plantation, TG Kyrazis - Pace Island, Cindy Fritts - Pace Island, Jan Bullock - Eagle Harbor, Leah Tincher - Jacksonville Golf &amp;amp; Country Club, Kellie Teate - Sawgrass, Caitlin McCarthy - Selva Marina Country Club and Guest Marilyn Reid - Putnam County.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1.

The FCSSL checking account is set up at Bank of America. The names on the account are Jan Bullock - Treasurer, Roy Deary - President and TG Kyrazis - Vice President. There is $2,499.20 in the account at the present time. Each check written on the account will require 2 signatures. The league needs to pay Colleen White $87.50 for reimbursement on the Corporation papers and TG Kyrazis $100 for the website set up cost.

				<description>&lt;p&gt;First Coast Summer Swim League&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meeting February 9, 2010&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The regular meeting of the First Coast Summer Swim League was&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;held on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 at Eagle Landing. Members&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;present were: Roy Deary - Oakleaf Plantation, TG Kyrazis - Pace&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Island, Jay Soriano - Eagle Landing, Leah Tincher - Jacksonville&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Golf &amp;amp; Country Club, Cindy Fritts - Pace Island, Jan Bullock -&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eagle Harbor, Louanna Perrucci - Oakleaf Plantation and Rod&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Swartz - Oakleaf Plantation. Clubs not represented were&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sawgrass, Selva and Beaches Aquatic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. The meeting was called to order at 12:45 pm by Roy Deary -&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2010 FCSSL President.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2. The minutes from the October 21, 2009 meeting were&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;reviewed. Motion was made by TG Kyrazis to accept the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;minutes and 2nd by Roy Deary. Motion passed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. The Treasurers Report was given by Leah Tincher and Jan&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bullock. There is a balance of $2,499.20 in the FCSSL&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;account at Jax Golf. Jax Golf will cut a check for the balance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;in the account payable to FCSSL, Inc. and Jan Bullock will&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;set up an account at Bank of America and deposit the check&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;into the account. TG Kyrazis has agreed to purchase the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;remaining trophies for the 2009 Championship meet for the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;teams that placed 4th - 8th and this will be paid out of the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FCSSL account.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. Discussion regarding league insurance. Jay Soriano has&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;done some research and determined that K &amp;amp; K Insurance is&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the best policy to use. Insurance is required at Cecil Field to&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;use their facilities. Motion was made by Jay Soriano to use&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;K &amp;amp; K Insurance and select Option #1 as the coverage.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;According to the policy from 2009 Option #1 would cost&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;$5.62 per swimmer. This amount will be paid by each&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;swimmer in the league. Second by Roy Deary. Motion&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;passed. A copy of the policy was given to every team that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;was present. A copy of the policy will be emailed to all&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;teams with the minutes from the meeting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. Discussion regarding the FCSSL Website. Jay Soriano has&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;done some preliminary work on the website. Jay pointed out&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;that the only costs involved would be the website hosting fee&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;which may be around $170 per year. This is assuming that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;we would do all of the updates. Cindy Fritts agreed to be in&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;charge of updating the website. TG Kyrazis has agreed to&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;continue with the set-up of the website. Motion was made by&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TG Kyrazis to continue with the set up and maintenance of&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the FCSSL website, 2nd by Roy Deary. Motion passed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. Discussion regarding Meet Manager 3.0 for swimming.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is a new update dated August 25, 2009 for Meet&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Manager. It was determined that the update is not&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;necessary at this point in time since most teams just&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;purchased their own copy of Meet Manager in 2009.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eventually every team will want to purchase the update but&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;this year we will remain with Meet Manager 2.0.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. Discussion on League Fees. It is uncertain at this time what&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the exact amounts will be for the champs expenses. There&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;was discussion that we can borrow tents from Jax Golf for&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;the Champs meet. We can use up the balance in the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;FCSSL account. Motion was made by Roy Deary to set the&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;league fee at $15 per swimmer, 2nd by Jan Bullock.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8. Discussion regarding New Teams. Roy Deary reported that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Watermill is definitely a possibility of joining the FCSSL. Jan&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Bullock has been in contact with a team in Palatka that may&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;be interested in joining the league. She will contact them&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;again to see if they are still interested. Watermill will be&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;placed on the swim schedule with Eagle Landing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9. Discussion of the 2010 Swim Schedule. Roy Deary will set&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;up the swim schedule similar to the 2009 schedule. He will&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;match up teams and the final scheduling will be at the next&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;meeting. The schedule will start on Saturday, June 5, 2010.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He will build into the schedule a week off - the week of July&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;19 - 24, 2010. This will be done in order to re-schedule&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;meets that had to be canceled due to the weather. Champs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;is set for a one day meet on Saturday, July 31, 2010 at Cecil&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Field.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10. The next meeting of the FCSSL will be on Tuesday, March 9,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2010. The location will be determined at a later date.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;11. Meeting adjourned.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Motion was made by Colleen White to accept the minutes and 2nd by TG Kyrazis. Motion passed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3. There was a discussion about the number of meets that a swimmer must participate in, in order to qualify for the championship meet. It was determined that they must swim in 1/4 of the dual meets which equals 2 meets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4. There was discussion on stroke infractions for dual meets as to when the stroke infractions were going to be counted. Colleen White made a motion to start counting DQ's the third week of June (3rd meet) and continue till the end of swim season. Motion 2nd by Roy Deary. Motion passed. It was also determined that during the 1st two meets that the stroke and turn judge will fill out a DQ slip and give it to the proper coach so that the swimmer can work on that stroke before the next meet.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5. There was also discussion regarding stroke infraction at the championship meet. It was determined that at champs, when a stroke and turn judge sees an infraction, they must raise their hand and get immediate clarification from the Head Judge. Motion was made by TG Kyrazis to add a Head Stroke and Turn Judge to the Championship Meet. 2nd by Jan Bullock. Motion passed. Leah Tincher volunteered to be the head judge at the 2010 Championship Meet on July 31, 2010. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6. Each rep was given a copy of the FCSSL By-Laws. These need to be updated. This issue will be tabled until the next meeting in April 2010. The DQ slips will be provided by the home team. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7. The Computer Clinic and the Stroke and Turn Clinic will be held at Jacksonville Golf &amp;amp; Country Club on Saturday, May 22, 2010. The computer clinic will begin at 9:00 am and the stroke and turn clinic will be held at 10:00 am. There will be a sign-up sheet at the April meeting to determine if there is enough interest to hold these clinics.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8. There was discussion about the scoring of the events at the Championship meet. TG Kyrazis suggested that the scoring be as follows:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Score 1-16 on individual events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Medals 1-8 on individual events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ribbons 9-16 on individual events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There will be NO Super Swimmer Ribbons this year.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Score 1-8 on Relay events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Medals 1-3 on Relay events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ribbons 4-8 on Relay events&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TG also suggested that we allow &amp;#8220;B&amp;#8220; relays at champs if there is space available. The &amp;#8220;B&amp;#8220; relays will be for exhibition only.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9. Kellie Teate volunteered to be in charge of the awards for champs. This will include medals, ribbons and trophies for all teams participating.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10. Leah Tincher has purchased the Hy-Tek 3.0 Meet Manager and it is licensed to the First Coast Summer Swim League. There was discussion if every team can use this program.
