Old Business.
CMGC Website
– Phil noted a survey was distributed to the membership regarding the website update. Responses so far were mixed. A committee of five members has been identified to investigate the received proposals detailing possible solutions and report their progress to the CMGC staff. Webmaster Barney Gaylord will be a consulting member to the group.

Swap Meet – Jim Evans noted that the annual Swap Meet is still in limbo at this time due to the COVID restrictions. We currently have established a March 21st date for the event with the DuPage Fairgrounds Associatio. Responses to an email survey sent to past vendors are slowly being received. Since it is possible we could lose our assigned space if we move the event date, alternate sites were discussed – Odeum Expo Center in Villa Park, Vasa Park South Elgin, Boomers Stadium (Wintrust Field) parking lot Schaumburg. Jim will continue to investigate these alternate sites.
  New Business
No new business noted at this time.

With no further business to discuss, meeting closed at 7:39 pm.

Respectfully submitted,

Victor L’Heureux,
CMGC Secretary
