ALPINE AERO SQUADRON APRIL 2008 NEWSLETTER

These are the minutes for the April 10, 2008 meeting. Our President Tom Clark brought the meeting to order at 7:40 p.m. A motion was made, seconded, and approved to accept the minutes of the March meeting as read at the April meeting.

Old Business:
The Club may re-oil the Field this summer. We have to remove all the Clay Sediments, replace them with Cold Patch & find out much it will cost us to re-oil the Field before the Club can make that decision.

New Business:
When anyone is flying at the Field the inter Gate will be closed. The outer Gate will be also close on Weekends, but on Weekdays the Gate may or may not be closed. If the County leaves the gate open, don’t worry about the Gate; but if we open the Gate, we will close the Gate. The last person leaving the Field will lock both Gates. The speed limit going to & from the Field is 15-Miles Per Hour. No more Welding permitted at the Field.

Richard Thomas’s Wife has asked that the Club drop his name from the Rooster because he has Alzheimer’s decease.
