VICE PRESIDENT – Randy Hawkins said the key to the box holding the DB meter to measure and record sound recordings is in the shed on right side.  Club Member, Steve Kubit had 2 planes fail last month.  So he bought 2 muffler “Extensions” from www.FLYQUIET.com and both planes now pass and are much quieter with no loss of power.  Gas Flying is from 10am – 4pm once your plane is checked and recorded in the book.  Two (2) Gas Planes in air at a time.                   

President – Tommy Vinci said the land next to our field has been sold but we don’t anticipate any sub divisions to be built.  They plan to raise horses. 

New Business: 

Randy brought up the name of the person who made the Software used at SEFF registration/impound.  He put in many hours of work and could the club compensate him like a SEFF worker.  There were no objections. 

Randy brought up putting in a drainage pipe at the South end (right side) of runway and then fill it in to give a run off area that is flat.  The motion was seconded and passed.
