ELECTRICAL REBUILDER’S ASSOCIATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING Wednesday, November, 2005 The meeting began at 7:40 pm via conference call. Mike Schroeder, Hank Henke, Alan Melton, Joe Davis, Dan Smith, Chris Thompson, AJ Campbell, Mike Dietrich and Bob Thomas were in attendance. The first item discussed was the Tech Ed seminar scheduled for the 2006 show in Charlotte. Polly had sent out an email explaining the logistics of the Dale Earnhardt Inc tours at the show. Everyone agreed to start the Friday morning class at 7:30 am, early enough for attendees to make the DEI afternoon tour. The second class on Friday will be held in the evening, and open to everyone at no charge. This class, “Solving Rebuilding Problems’, will be similar to the open ERA meetings held at the last few shows. This schedule will permit rebuilders to attend both the seminar and the tour. Mike suggested the association look into purchasing a professional booth backdrop before the next show, and all agreed. Next, the 2006 seminar schedule was discussed, and some modifications were made. Below is the schedule with dates, cities and hosts.
