Patti and Justin still have debit cards to the account for Rocket Run and Sunshine purposes – these need to be transferred to new contacts for these positions.
Pattie sent off ICCU paperwork two weeks ago for the bank account.
Rachael will call ICCU tomorrow (Friday, July 8th), to see if we can finish getting the account transferred over.
QuickBooks purchase for the club to better manage accounts. Jim motioned; Rachael seconded.
Rachael sent an email on 6-3-22 – see last page for pricing and plan options.
Council voted on purchasing the online “Simple Start” Quickbooks. It is currently $12.50/month for 3 months, and then $25/month afterward. Jim asked that we check for an annual purchase, rather than a month-to-month payment. Rachael will look into an annual payment.
Jim proposed, Glenn P. seconded. Unanimous vote from council.
If Rachael determines we need a Quickbooks software upgrade, we will look into it at that time.
CPA Consult
Council agreed that with the growth of the Rocket Run, we are concerned about the tax implications for the club.
Would it be best for the club to separate Rocket Run as its own nonprofit, tax-exempt corporation?
Rachael had reached out to a CPA that she works with; however, he has not responded. She will attempt contact again.
Dan Sullivan also suggested Lynn Nixon (an ex-member) as a possible CPA source if Rachael’s source does not work out.
