This is a preliminary agenda.  Please send agenda items to Arun Sen at
bubusen at hotmail.com, syvanen at ucdavis.edu, or me -- at
yamagata at virtual-markets.net

This is preliminary.  The agenda will be changed some more once the July
minutes from the last meeting are completely transcribed and edited. 

PLEASE NOTE -- THIS MEETING IS AT THE BLANCHARD ROOM
The meeting starts at 7PM and can go until 9PM.

If you received your DDC board member folder, PLEASE BRING YOUR FOLDER TO
THE MEETING.  

This meeting will be held from 7PM to 8:21PM.  We must vacate the room by 9PM.

To let everyone know -- THE LAST MEETING ADJOURNED THE ROOM AT 8:26PM, which
was our projected time for the finish of the meeting!!!  President Arun Sen
wants this meeting to be about the manning the Yolo County Central Committee
Booth at the Yolo County Fair and Jerry's Ice Cream Social.  We also need to
discuss the revised by-laws.  Copies will be handed out at the meeting.  I
am trying to compile an e-mail list for all of our board members.  At some
point, I have to send the by-laws to the general membership and the list for
their approval at a general meeting of the membership.  

Please note that all Davis Democrat Club members are welcome to attend the
board meeting.  Usually, we have several guests, both members and
non-members, at these meetings.
