Safety Report
            Gregg reminded everyone we are, by club rules to move away form the pits area to start our motors. It is still allowed, by this Secretaries memory, to allow your motor to run dry after flying under the pitts  BUT no throttle up in so doing!!! 
 
New Business

There was some discussion of possibly expanding to the South to build an outside kitchen and enclosed Impound area. Since the original impound area had become not useable and has been removed, we need desperately to find a permament solution to impounding radios for large events.  We all realize with the advent of 2.4 GHz this is possibly something that may be someday a thing of the past BUT it hasn’t come to pass yet and we need to stay diligent until then!!

 

Old Business
            NO old business at this time.
 
Closing

A Motion to adjourn was made by George Miller was seconded by Sal Vezzi.
