Questions & Discussions: Our next fellowship will be in August when guests will be here – likely the weekend of the 20th see Rich Walker. There will be an effort to do another beach clean up and Laura Slater will get it organized for September 12th. It was suggested that we combine a clean up with the August fellowship. We are looking for at least one more operations boat and more active participating members. Members can participate in a number of “perks” but we have to participate at a greater level – see George Kontra. Adjournment: 18:35 |
