                                                 CAPT Board Meeting
                          Annual Membership Meeting
                                   November 21, 2015
                                      Columbia, S.C.

      
The Carolinas Association for Passenger Trains will meet in Columbia at the Richland County Library on Saturday, November 21, 2015.    The address is 1431 Main Street in the city of Columbia.  The telephone number is 803-799-9084.  We will meet in the Irwin Kahn Meeting Room at 1:15 PM.   The room is ours until 4:45 PM. 
 
For those who may use Google Earth, GPS, or other mapping service enter the address 1431 Main Street, Columbia, S.C. 29201.   Parking on the street around the library is generally available, and on Saturday meters are free.  However, USC has a home football game on this date with the Citadel, so parking downtown may be a little tougher than usual.  Plan to allow more time to arrive early.  
 
If anyone would like to get together for lunch prior to the meeting, gather at the California Dreaming Restaurant at 401 S. Main Street, 29201 no later than 11:30 AM.  Again, it may be crowded there, as will most all downtown restaurants, and parking will be tough to find due to the football game.

CAPT Official Notice of Election of Officers and Directors
Directors and Officers for the Carolinas Association for Passenger Trains will be elected at the November 21, 2015 Annual General Membership meeting in Columbia, S.C.  Directors serve terms of two years, and officers are elected yearly. The Board of Directors consists of 12 to 18 members based on the percentage of CAPT members in North Carolina and South Carolina. This serves as official notice of the annual meeting and elections.  Any member interested in running for the board should contact any member of the present board and provide biographical information for consideration, or be prepared to provide this information in person at the meeting.   Current directors who are ending a term of two years should notify Secretary Phil Astwood [/size]if the intention is to run again.
