Activities - Kim Miedema

Thank you to all of the people who stepped up to put on an event this year. It's been a very fun slate of new ideas mixed in with old favorites. Thank you to Brian and Renee for setting up a great calendar of events. We started the year with a $9,080 budget for profit on activities. Due to great participation from our members, as well as guest participation, we are well on the way to that goal with $8,745 year to date . Smoke on the Water, the golf outing and haul out will round out this year. Please participate and have fun! Clubhouse - PC Hugh Vestal PC Hugh stated that the air conditioning unit has helped in keeping the electricity bills in check. While we do pay for the air conditioning, the reduction in the fan usage has helped to keep the costs under control. PC Hugh also wanted to remind everyone that if you accidently drop something in the toilets to let someone know immediately, before it poses a problem. Harbor & Grounds – Don Reiss Don wanted to thank all of the candidates that put their name on the ballot. He asked all of the membership to consider running for office in the future. We need everyone to step up and help the Club going forward.
