Presidents Items
· Bill Brown reported that the
casino trip is filling up. He also noted that he is looking into a trip to
Delaware which would include the Air Mobility Command Museum and/or Heritage
Park. The air museum includes the opportunity to go tour Air Force Two, the
vice-presidents plane.
· Bill also reported that he is
pacing an ad in the local newspaper as part of a membership drive. The ad
explains the reasons why men might like to join the club. President Kille
reported that Henry Leimkuhler suggested having a survey of members to see what
other types of activities they might like to have in the club. It was pointed
out that two surveys had been done in the past couple years with no response.
One survey was on activities and the other on trips.
· Al Schmidt brought in samples of
business cards touting the club website. Members are free to pick them up and
hand them out to acquaintances.

Mike Underwood agreed to be the 4th of July parade chairman. Bernie
Schaming, Warren Reintzel and Ron Howley agreed to serve on the committee. Bill
Brown indicated that this year’s theme is Red, White & Blue. It was
suggested in the past that we do a theme around Champ Goldie and Charles Legge
will try to contact Champ.
Old Business
· Bill Brown showed the board the
two apron samples that he received. After discussion, one of the aprons was

the red apron.
