At the August club meeting, we reviewed the
purchase of the tractor. Donations so far have reached a little over
$1,400.00. That only leaves $1,600.00 to go.
|
|
Please remember the membership voted on a
voluntary assessment of a minimum $30.00 for all members. With 70 members
x $30.00 that only equals $2.100.00. That does leave us a little short. So
let's remember the $30.00 is a minimum figure. Remember to mark your check
"Tractor Fund".
|
| Again we are thankful to Billy Owens for loaning
us the money so we could make the purchase before someone beat us to it. |
|
The tractor is already getting a workout. With
all the rain we are having, the pond is back up to normal |
|
REMEMBER to put your hanger poles down and SECURE
them. They do their best holding the roofs down during our afternoon
sprinkles |
|
After the August meeting we were going to have a
WORK PARTY to construct a cover for the Massy tractor. It turned out we
had to reschedule to Sunday. We now have a cover for the bush hog. Thanks
to Chaz Almond and Billy Owens for their hard work |

The BOARD of DIRECTORS has been reviewing the
clubs financial condition for the last 3 months. I asked Krystal Ericsson,
our Treasurer, to put together financial statements for 2001, 2002 and
this year. After an extensive review and discussion, the Board has voted
to seek membership approval for an increase in our fees. The membership
has approved an increase in hanger fees to $70.00 per month, effective
September 1, 2003. No change has been made to the annual membership fee.
If you choose to pay your hanger fee on an annual basis, you still get
twelve months for the price of eleven |
| This increase has been brought about because we
have not increased our fees for approximately eight years, and our
expenses have been going up annually. We have also voted to remove the
clubhouse telephone, saving us approximately $300.00 per year. We feel
that there is sufficient coverage with the cell phones that are available |
|
Please remember that the new fees are effective
SEPTEMBER 1, 2003. The basic hanger fee is now $70.00, with an additional
charge of $5.00 if you have an air conditioner. The $3.00 electric fee has
been dropped. All fees are due on the FIRST of the month. A $25.00 penalty
will be assessed on late payments
