President Ron Simon called the
meeting to order at 8:05
President Simon was finally successful in gaining a marginal
state of order by 8:10.
Since our Secretary was probably somewhere on a beach drinking,
volunteers were sought to act as Secretary. Gene Olson was not
listening and was late in hiding under the table; so he was appointed.
President Ron presented a Plaque
of Appreciation to former President Pete Thelander, for Pete's
leadership as President.
