MN-Stf Board Meeting
September 26, 1994

Attending: Polly Peterson, Dean Gahlon, Martin Schafer, Cat Ocel, Kay Drache.

Quote of the Meeting: "I'm Sercon; 50% less Silly."

Next Meeting: Monday, October 17 at 7:30 at Kays.

Congratulations to Polly, whose promotion means that fourth Mondays will not
always work.

Scott Imes reports on the Ed Emshwiller project. He has contacted the
Minnesota State Arts Board, the Metro Regional Arts Council, the Walker Art
Center, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, and Resources and Counseling for
the Arts. So far he has not found "free" insurance, but there is some interest
in the project for 18 months from now. These places are booking their major
exibitions three years in advance. We would like Scott to continue to pursue
for 18 months from now. 30 months is not a problem for us but may be for Alex.
Minicon 31 Exec must be prepared to deal with a dead artist GoH ("101 Uses for
a Dead Artist"...) Cat brought the photostats from Alex of his entire
collection. We agree it would be great to share these with more than just the
Minicon attendees.

We still don't know if we owe ASCAP money for Minicon 28, 29. (Charles Piehl
has gafiated.)

Polly got a letter from a midwest Fantasy organization that wants to trade
mailing lists; we don't do this.

Dan Goodman is posting Einblatt word for word on the Internet; we will ask
Denny to mention this again so people are aware of its wide distribution.

From Minicon minutes; 8.5x11 replacement badges; Bozo TV is now Network 73.

Library: Rob sold about $185.00 at ReinCONation and Don Blyly bought another
$100.00 (Scott estimated maybe half of what was left); remainder are in Joyce
Scrivner's basement awaiting shipping to deserving persons or Minicon sales.
Kay will call around again to Libros por Ninos, Jerry Corwin.

Polly and Mark are supposed to have a final Treasury report for Minicon 29 by
October 1; may not have it done by then but will have it for next Board
Meeting.

We discussed finding another Vice President since Charles appears to have
gafiated, tossed around names (DDB? Sharon Kahn?), agreed that choice of
meeting space affects attendance at said meetings (witness tiny showing at
recent meeting at Ken Konkol's), need someone who is comfortable calling up a
variety of people and persuading them to host. Discussed other possibilities
for revitalizing MN-Stf; continued to October agenda.
