New Business: David Barnett and Dave Stauber worked on calling a phone tree this month to invite members to the meeting & there were several more member present this month. Dave Stauber would like to have all the membership confirm that we have the correct cell phone, email and contact information. He would also like to confirm if several of the named members are in fact members or not and, therefore, would like to update the membership list.
