[SJAAboard] Loaner Scope Policy adopted May 2007

[Nelsonastro at aol.com]

There is already an existing policy adopted by the Board (how short  the 
memory)
So I assume what is being talked about is "revised based on further input  
from
the board"
 
*Mission Statement for Loaner Program*

Who Program is intended to  Aid

1. Beginners Beginners should be able to get beginner
level  instruments that they can use (transport, setup,
operate) to encourage their  interest in the hobby.
This contrasts to their seeing the  instruments
demonstrated at star parties


2. Intermediates If we  have successfully attracted a
new person to the hobby then most likely that  person
will desire a larger scope. The program should allow
them to use  scopes to see how large an instrument they
can transport, set it up, and  operate.


The motion passed unanimously. There were no abstentions
or oppositions.

Steven Nelson - former Board  member
