Minutes of the June 12, 2002 meeting

 
Our meeting was held in Jo-Ann Prater's home with Marilynn Miller presiding for her final meeting as chairperson. Present were Abby Rice, Janet Barnard, Betty Obara, Janie McIntire, Terri Vrbancic, Dana Rogers, Myra Jamison, Marilynn Miller, Connie Copeland, and Jo-Ann Prater.

An error in the May minutes: the place for our fall sectional is Covington, Ky.   The minutes were approved as corrected.

Janie gave the treasurer's report and included expenses and income from the right-seat companion course. Not very many of the students got to fly.  Next year, we should look for another airport with more room.

Marilynn suggested we start a program for children with a mini ground school and rocket making as part of the program.

Marilynn Miller announced the results of our election.  Elected were:

Chairperson: Betty Obara

Vice Chairperson: Paula Rumbaugh

Secretary: Marjorie Anderson

Treasurer: Janie McIntire
 

Marilynn presented each of the previous officers with a gift and Betty received the Chairperson handbooks.  The officers that were present were installed.  A motion was made and passed to accept the findings of the ballets and the ballots could then be destroyed.

Betty Obara reported that she would be teaching about 90 students at a NASA course with EAA helping her a day. The course was to last a week as I understood.

The trip to Colorado was discussed for Sept. 25 to Oct. 2.

Everyone was reminded of our High Tea on June 15. Janie had shirts, aviator bags, and decorated plates to sell.
