Randy sent Dave Heisely a nice a card expressing the clubs appreciation of all his work in the past, and asking if the club can do anything else for him at this time. It was suggested that Rusty Bartel ofter to mow his grass at the same time that he mows the clubhouse grass.
Rusty Bartel also suggested that we have a list of special tools that club members have available for loan or help. Next meeting, everyone should be prepared to write down the tools that you are willing to share or bring with you to help. It should be a great resource.
There being no new business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:05 and a field day to clean the clubhouse commenced. Everyone pitched in and in no time the clubhouse was in great shape for the YE event.
Respectfully submitted,
Randall Stout
