Article IV Board of Directors Section 1. Powers: The affairs of the Booster Club shall be managed under the recommendation of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise provided in the Bylaws. The Board of Directors shall have the duty and power to prepare and propose a budget of projected fundraising and expenses, and determine expenditures to cover operating costs, based on input from the Head coach. The budget shall be created in consultation with the Head Coach. The Head Coach and the Booster Club, through their elected Board, should make spending decisions collaboratively. The Board of Directors will oversee approved budget expenditures. Priorities for allocated Booster funds shall be set by the Head Coach. Section 2. Liability Booster Board members shall not be personally liable for the debts, liabilities, or other obligations of the Baseball Booster Club. Except as may be otherwise provided under provisions of law, the Booster Board of Directors may purchase and maintain insurance against liabilities incurred in the execution of their Club management duties. Section 3. Board of Directors Meetings Meetings will be scheduled at the discretion of the President or upon request of the General Membership. Board of Directors meetings are closed unless invited by the President with the Board of Directors’ approval. Only Board Members are entitled to vote. All members of the Board must be notified in a timely manner about an upcoming meeting. A quorum for a Board meeting shall be defined as 3 Board members in attendance. It is the intent of the Booster Board to work towards a consensus decision-making process with the final voting as a ratification of that consensus. A simple vote may be deemed necessary in order to accomplish the task of the Board. Motions to be voted upon require the consideration of the full Board and will pass by a majority vote. In case of a tie, the President shall act as tiebreaker. If a Board member cannot be present for a vote, he or she may designate a proxy, or submit a vote via email, to the Board President.
