AmesMUG Officers: AmesMUG this year

[John Rearick]

Next week I am available Monday night.  Thursday night I will be going  
down to the Cocoaheads meeting in Des Moines.  I'm not necessarily  
available Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday nights but I can try to work  
around my schedule if those days work better for others next week.

In order to spend money for the group I need to be the official  
treasurer, which will require all of us to sign and turn in one of  
their paper forms. Shall I go ahead and update our officers and get  
the form to sign? The offices would be:

President: Brandon
Adviser: Tom
Treasurer: John (remove Chris)
Vice President: Jon
Secretary: Sheng

Thanks,
