April 10, 2012

Last week we were talking about election of officers. Each league usually elects new officers at season’s end, and many are begging for people to run for office. This week, I will cover the President, Vice President and the League Treasurer.
The president is the league’s chief executive.
The President/League Supervisor is responsible for:
·       Arranging an account to be opened in the league name at a federally insured and recognized bank, credit union or in-house banking service. The account must have at least two league officers’ signatures for all fund withdrawals. Account statements are sent to the president for verification purposes.
·       Scheduling league meetings at convenient times and locations.
·       Appointing committees.
·       Enforcing all league rules and USBC playing rules.
·       Verifying league accounts monthly. See the Monthly President Verification Worksheet in the Managing
League Funds section of this handbook.
·       May vote on all issues before the board.
In youth leagues that have a board, the president should assist the league supervisor with the duties of the president.
League Vice President
The vice president assumes the duties of the president in the president’s absence, and assists the president as requested.
The Treasurer is responsible for:
·       Working with the president to open an account in the league name at an insured and recognized bank, credit union or in-house banking service, with at least two league officers’ signatures required for all withdrawals.  Account statements are mailed to the President for verification purposes.
·       Depositing funds in the league account within seven (7) days of receipt.
·       Working with the league president to verify the league’s account balance at least once per month.
·       Collecting league fees each session and paying the bowling center.
·       Issuing a check or money order made payable to the local association to cover membership dues.
·       Advising the league president and secretary if any league members are delinquent in paying league fees.
·       Providing each team with a detailed financial statement when the prize fund is distributed; including receipts, disbursements and transactions, and prize recipients’ names and earnings.
·       Distributing the prize fund within 21 days after the league schedule ends, unless the board or USBC decides otherwise.
·       Giving financial reports on request by the league president or board.
·       Turning over all league books, papers and monies to the next league treasurer. All financial records —regardless if in the possession of the former or current treasurer — must be retained for one (1) year after the league schedule ends.
    In the Tuesday Nite Go-Getters, the year end roll off was held between the 1st half leader, Always Late, and the 2nd Half leader Wolf Creek. In a best of 3 match, with both games very close in score, Wolf Creek were the victors. Team members are, for Always Late, Margaret Birge, Bub Tiffin, Dot Tiffin, Charlie Tiffin, and Houston Keys. For Wolf Creek, team meam members include Martha Elliott, Laura Baird, Joe Elliott, and Greg Miller. Congrats to both teams! In the Senior League, Greg Miller seems to be our bowler of the week, where he rolled 84 pins over his average for a 256. Bill Reynolds was 51 pins over his game average, Linda Engle was 60 pins over her game average with a 191, and Jack Ball was 59 pins over his game average with a 204.  Ed Reed had a 202-236-226 for a 664 series.  Joe Davis was 63 over his game average with a 233, and 104 pins over his series total.  Jim Thomas converted the 5-6-10, Judy Arnett was able to split apart the 9-10, and Judy Gebhart knocked out the 3-10.
    The Monday nite No-Tap league is reporting Jimmy Scruggs rolled 72 pins over average for a 278, which combined with his other game scores tallied a 700 even score. Shirley Perryman rolls a 250 game, 77 pins over her average.  Yvonne Scruggs had a great series of 647, which included a 240 game. Other bowlers rolling 50 or more pins over average were Brock Dieu, 84 over with a 266, Terry Jones, 60 over with a258, Nancy Goodner, a 211, 53 pins over, Essie Syass, 66 pins over average for a 197, and Lynnse Gondzur, 62 pins over average for a 196.
Looks as if next week will be the last column of this bowling season. I will give you more info then.
Until next week, let’s have fun and knock ‘em down. See you at the lanes.
