Present: Tom Zwack, Joe McPhail, Pam Brown   Work Day Saturday Feb. 27 at 8 AM at Airfield

1.       Tom Z, Joe, Pam and Tom Morony have all registered with FAA. Please let me know if you have registered with the FAA or if you need assistance registering.
2.       Pam will contact former members to see if they are interested in renewing membership or know anyone who might be interested in joining our club.  Pam has been in contact with Bob Martin about joining our club and we are looking forward to getting acquainted with him.
3.       Treasurer Report: Tom Zwack reports a balance of $3641.80.
4.       Weeds are currently under control at field.  Tom Z. has two 50 gallon drums to use for water to mix spray.  We need two spigots to get water from barrel to a garden hose.  We need to spray sterilizer before weeds come up.
5.       Runway needs to be rolled with vehicle tires to compact the surface.
6.       Striping of the runway can take place after it is rolled.
7.       The perimeter fence needs to be realigned and straightened.
8.       The Cry Room may be best used for storage since it is hard to keep liquid.
9.       Swing gate needs to be reinforced with barb wire.
10.   Spring Swap Meet at field will be a good opportunity to clean out and organize your workshop as well as outfit new members.  Label a cardboard box now and you can put items in as you come across them.  This should create a lot of interest.
11.   Meeting announcement will be sent to the paper and radio station before each meeting.  Pam will also work on press releases and articles that can be published locally.

12.   March meeting on Tuesday the 8th will include elections for officers.  Dues for this year $40 are payable at the meeting and are good April 1 to March 31.  We are a bargain club with Chino Valley charging $200 and St. George $120.  We just need more members to share our hobby!
