OLD BUSINESS

Raffle tickets for the September fun fly need to be turned in as soon as possible.

Next fun fly is scheduled for August 19, 2007.

NEW BUSINESS

Thanks to Mike Crum and his people we have a new frequency board. Thanks again to 
Mike and Rodney for the installation in a new location. Ed Goldberg made a motion to 
give Mike Crum a free year of dues to show our appreciation for the frequency board and 
also donation of the wood for the safety tables. Motion passed unanimously.

The club had a generator made available by a friend of Charlie Haupt, it is being kept in 
the shed.

Larry Gee, Greg’s dad, built the club a sound system; he was in town over the weekend 
and brought it down. It will be tried out at next fun fly.

The windsock is in tatters, from a high wind possibly. Tom Dougherty will be contacted 
about making a new one.

Doc motioned we buy a kayak for the club for $175. to retrieve planes lost in the water. A 
long discussion ensued, about club liability etc. Doc made a call to his lawyer daughter 
and she told him that we would be liable unless we made a waiver slip to be signed by 
whoever is using it. It was brought up that personal rights can not be signed away and we 
could still possibly be liable.  A vote was taken and there were 5 people for buying it; 4 
against; and 6 abstained. Greg made a motion not to purchase the kayak until waiver is in 
hand and a Standard Operating Procedure be written for its use. Motion Passed.

Mike Crum brought up about the weeds on the road blocking the view coming around the 
corner when entering/leaving. Greg will try to get the county to trim it back. 

It was brought up about the shed key and who would need them. Discussion on the 
subject followed with the question coming up of what is in the shed the people need keys 
for. Wayne brought up about getting the sign out and everyone being in Delaware for 
Warbirds Over Delaware. Nothing else was brought up on the subject.

Bob Warden asked about the schedule of events for the September fun fly, Greg 
explained to him what to expect.
