upcoming Saturday
Meeting with Sheriff
Davenport to see what

available.
Membership Directory.

the board what the

for a web-based

system at Rolling Hills
Country Club to see how
it would work. Meryl is
going to look into doing
a printed directory
outside of PIE via DPI.
The $3,000 in the budget
stands.

in the budget, but no
new ones will be
purchased until how they
get emptied is resolved.
Dune Walkovers. The
$5,000 budgeted will
stay. Carol and Meryl

walkover once the
location has been
identified.
