This is a transcription of paper minutes done by Matt Strait in 2020.
The intent was to transcribe exactly without corrections, however I may
certainly have introduced new typos or inadvertently corrected some.
All text in square brackets, for instance "[sic]", are added in
transcription.

Note: A summary of these minutes appears in RUNE 70.  It reads:

'The third meeting of the Board "was called to hear a presentation by Frank Sto-
dolka and conduct other business."  Frank proposed organizing a book sale to help
un- and under-employed fans get to worldcon.  "The Board decided that he did not
need Minn-Stf Board approval as long as he doesn't use the name Minn-Stf."  A member
had asked to use the mailing permit for a personal mailing. "It was decided that
this would set a bad precedent and could not be allowed as it might jeopardize our
use of a mailing permit."  There was discussion of the meeting schedule, return-add-
ress rubber stamps, the button-makers, Minicon money, and the CPR training sessions.
"There was some discussion about whether the editors of RUNE might be changed every
other year to allow more people to participate.  Nothing was decided, but various
people will ask around to see if anyone would be interested in the job."  The Board
approved the Minicon Executive Committee of Don Bailey, Steve Bond, Reen Brust,
Scott Imes and Caryl Wixon.'

                The Third Meeting of
                   The 1982/1983
                   Minn-STF Board

     The third meeting of the 1982/1983 Minnesota Science
Fiction Society board met in special session at 8:15 PM
May 24,1982 in the home of Judy Cilcain.  This meeting
was called to hear a presentation by Frank Stodolka
and conduct other busines [sic].
     The order of busines [sic] was 1)presentation by Frank
Stodolka, 2)mailing permit, 3)Minn-STF meeting schedule,
4) the return address stamp(s), 5) options for RUNE editor,s
6) the button maker, 7)Minicon Exec approval, 8)Minicon
funds approval, 9)Minicon CPR classes and 10) the next
board meeting.
     1)  Frank Stodolka presented a plan to help unemployed
and underemployed science fiction fans get to world cons.
He proposed holding a book sale and having those who work
on the sale become eligible for financial assistance with
traveling expenses.  The board decided that has did not
need Minn-STF board approval for this plan [added by hand: "as long as he
did not use the name 'MnStF' -- ammended [sic] by board 6-15-82"]
and that he may want to pursue the plan independently.  There also
could have been a conflict with article III of our
articles of incorporation which might jeopardize the
Non-profit statis [sic].
     2)  A board member had been asked if the mailing
permit could be used by a member for a personal mass
mailing.  It was decided that this would set a bad precedent
and could not be allowed as it might jeopardize our use
of a mailing permit.
     3)  A board member had been asked by a member if
the Minn-STF meetings could be offset by a week because
her current schedule did not allow her to attend.  After
consulting various calendars it was discovered that
after Worldcon and Plergbcon the meetings would be offset
anyway without jeopardizing anything.
     *)  The board unanimously voted down the proposal
to offer Roger Zelazny $4,000.00 to offset moving expenses
in an attempt to entice him into moving to Minnesota.
     4)  Someone asked if there was a return address
rubber stamp for the P. O. Box.  Someone else said that
there was one, and two people said that they had it.
It was finally determined that there were three rubber
stamps with the return address, one for Minicon, one
for Minn-STF and one for RUNE.  This was declared nice
to know.
     5)  There was some discussion about whether the
editors of RUNE should [struck out by hand and replaced by "might"]
be changed every other year. [By hand added: "to allow more
people to participate -- ammendended [sic] by board 6-15-82]
Nothing was decided, but various people will ask around
to see if anyone would be interested in the job.
     6)  The button maker could make two buttons at the
same time if the second die worked.  "About $30.00" was
approved for getting a working die.
     7)  There was a good deal of discussion about the
Minicon Exec.  The group nominated included Scott Imes,
Don Bailey, Reen Brust, Steve Bond and Carol Wixon.  There
were only four people on the Exec last year.  There was some
concern about adding the fifth.  The Exec was approved
with no dessenting [sic] vote.
     8)  Transfer of money into the Minicon Account was
approved so that airline tickets could be bought as soon
as possible to hopefully save some money.
     9)  Last year's CPR training sessions and their
attendance were discussed.  Various threats were suggested
to get the people who sign up to show up.  Nothing was
decided.
     10)  We will meet again on June 15.  We will make
some effort to inform the officers of the meetings.
