newsletter.
Kathryn said she would write about the up-coming voo.
John Cole will write about Squirrel Camp, and
Jackie will do a "Night Watch" article.
Jackie mentioned doing a "Highlight on a member"
in the newsletter. It had been started, and dropped.
Secretary: (correspondence) Pat sent a letter to TVM
thanking them for the gun that was raffled.
Awards committee: The awards committee (Duane, Pat, Jackie)
was appointed during last month's meeting. Jackie and Pat met and will let
Duane know what they've come up with, a basic plan, that will be presented at
next month's meeting. William explained how another club gives incentives and
recognition to workers by so many hours worked, they got a raffle ticket. Duane
will have to approve the plan, and if approved, will be presented at next
month's meeting.
Site Improvements: More screening was done on the building
at the shoot site. The floor of the attic was finished also. The addition of
chair railing on parts was discussed to prevent anyone from walking through it.
Rendezvous committee: Kathryn contacted Craig, who is in
charge of prizes. He didn't know that he was to recruit people to donate prizes
- he just thought he was supposed to hold them for the voo. She contacted Beth
who had a list of last year's prizes to use as a guideline for this year's
upcoming voo. Kathryn is still trying to gather prizes. She mentioned about
getting a pistol instead of a rifle. A discussion then ensued about possibly
starting a pistol shoot competition. William found a pistol on the internet and
Kathryn called them telling them about our club, what we do, and would they
consider giving a pistol to our club. They haven't heard back from them yet. A
picture of it was passed around. A knife was mentioned (to purchase). Kathryn
is working with Art and Nancy about the medallions. A circle medallion with a
fox with the name of the voo and date on the back. They will let her know of a
price. Because of all the work on the oven, possibly a beef or pork will be
cooked in it this year. Kathryn is also working on getting musicians to come
out and play after the dinner and drawings. Jackie told her to come up with a
budget and submit it, to find out how much it's going to cost, and it will be
addressed at next meeting. Also was told to do the same procedure with the gun.
Old Business:
Dec. workday is Dec. 14, Sunday. It is also the shoot.
Workday will be the morning before the shoot at 8 a.m. Firewood needs to be
cut. Also need to do mud for oven. William asked if anyone thought anything
else needed to be changed, like the woodswalks. Everyone seemed satisfied.
January meeting is our quarterly meeting. William thought
the out of town folks should be contacted to see if any of them would be
coming. Pat said she would do the contacts. Jackie said the meeting was
scheduled for Jan. 10. The Jan. shoot is the 11th. Jackie said if we change it
all the club members will have to be notified. Jackie suggested leaving it the
way it is and everyone agreed. The Jan. meeting will be Jan. 10 at 4 p.m.
Jan. workday: It was decided to go ahead and have a workday
on the morning of the 10th at 8 a.m.
Feb. workday: Will be Jan. 31 at 8 a.m. Pat will send out
reminders to everyone of dates via email.
Edgar was not present to report on whether or not he had
contacted Richard Smith about the gun for the grand prize for the 04 voo.
Charlie is working on writing an article for Muzzle Blasts
to publish the names of the raffle winners.
Pat talked about having a New Year's Eve party at their
house. Everyone is invited to come and camp. The holiday falls in the middle of
the week. so if you want to set up on the previous weekend, that's okay. Pat
will email members and request an RSVP.
New Business:
Jackie mentioned that following the meeting and the shoot,
that someone needs to do clean-up. Jan volunteered to clean-up after the
meeting, and Dave will do the shoot.
Jackie mentioned that some club members would like to get
together sometime over the Christmas holidays. It was decided to go to El
Chico's on N. Monroe on Sun., Dec. 28 at 5:30. Pat will email about this and
request an RSVP.
Pat brought up having a historian for the club, to take
photos at the events members go to. Jackie mentioned that instead of photos
being put in an album, that they could be on the website. Jackie said she would
contact Beth who has done it in the past to see what she has, and also will
check with Nancy Carter to see if she would be interested in doing it for the
club.
Jan brought up that our Louisiana contingent, Squeezebox
Charlie, sent a box of books and magazines (Smoke 'n Fire) to the club. A
discussion ensued on how to distribute them, or possibly storing them at the
site. Nothing definite was decided.
Meeting adjourned at 7:53.
