September meeting’s minutes were read.

Treasurer’s report was read. Jerry was elected as your club treasurer back in 2010 and began in January 2011. Back then our club had a total of $1,600.05 and we were headed on a downward spiral. Some simple changes and careful oversight over the years and we now have $4501.40, that’s an average increase of $290 per year! This allows us to do more things, yet remain responsible.

Repeater Trustee: The power supply in the 67 machine was serviced with a new run cap. Let’s hope we get another 44 years out of it.
