Exec reports - Quartermasters

Introduction

The Quartermasters (there are two) :

• Posts hours for taking out and returning gear.
• Is at the Clubroom reliably, to issue and receive gear.
• Ensures that people taking out gear are treated fairly and have reasonable expectations about when the gear must be back and what if it isn't.
• Keeps track of gear, makes sure it is returned on time, in good shape, buys more if needed, looks for deals on gear, does inventories, tests transceivers.
• Organizes the VOC Fall gear swap and/or ski tuning session.
• Attends the spring MEC Gear Swap looking for deals.
• Is heartless and insensitive in dealing with delinquents, repeat offenders, and gear hoarders.
• A good position for somebody who intends to spend a couple of noon hours every week in the Clubroom, who is organized and is interested in what we are doing with the gear.

Current Exec Report

2009 - 2010

Quartermasters: Piotr Forysinski, Lisa Pittl, Jacob Slosberg, Stephen Mullen

Draft: refer to "5-year gear plan"... likely this needs updating, as our gear funding has increased and we've got a few surprise injections of cheap/free gear

Ski equipment: attempt to standardize the bindings by only purchasing G3 Targa's (note: T/9 versions have aluminum toeplates, and should be avoided like the plague)

Contacts at G3: (bindings & parts, shovels & probes) when new parts are required to maintain our binding fleet, contact Marty Lazarski (martyl@genuineguidegear.com), or Stephen France (stephenf@genuineguidegear.com. They're both in Customer service, and Stephen is ex-VOC (and stoked to help us with gear)

Jacob has contacts with NOLS. (skis & Voile bindings, mountaineering gear, etc). He can fill in the details here:
