*The observant will no doubt notice that the first two meetings of 1979 are both scheduled to be held in Columbus. It was decided that it was preferable that more meetings be held in a central location in the state (Columbus) and particularly so during the winter months. also decided that meetings would continue to be held on Sunday with the hope that MCC would not be totally excluded from involvement in OGRC despite the conflict in scheduling. This decision was agreed upon in light of the number of presently active OGRC members who could not attend Saturday meetings.

MINUTES OGRC MEETING SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 24,1978-CLEVELAND

Marilyn presided over the meeting and Martha from Cleveland and David from Dayton took the minutes. Representatives were present from Dayton, Cleveland, Kent, Youngstown, Columbus, Burton and Toledo. After brief introductions and a short explanation of OGRC for the benefit of newcomers, the meetingbegan in earnest with a discussion of the Task Groups. Diane from Columbus began by reviewing the Communications Task Group's goals and plan. The role of county contacts as telephone liasons of OGRC around the state without specific organizing responsibilities was reiterated. Discussion focused on the newsletter and its role in the internal communications of OGRC. T. J. of Cleveland was the only member to have received a newsletter prior to the meeting, so it was decided that despite the resources available in Oberlin, that the responsibility for reprinting and distributing the newsletter would be moved temporarily to Kent-Akron. It was agreed that the functions of the newsletter were so vital to OGRC that the organization could no longer afford to dismiss the unreliability of the distribution of the newsletter from Oberlin. The Master for the newsletter will continue to be compiled in Columbus. Representatives from High Gear/Cleveland were at the meeting and gave three contacts for the paper which can be utilized to submit materials/articles or to acquire information about the paper. Mark (216)-961-3793, Carl (216)-228-9566 and Dan (216)-631-9275.

David Petersen gave the financial report and as chair of the Finance Task Group initiated that discussion. The current OGRC balance is $379.64. Petersen asked that everyone consider doing a fundraiser of some type for the benefit of OGRC. It was stressed that these events need not be of the same type, but that it was imperative for OGRC's financial goals that everyone make a serious commitment to fundraising.
