OLD BUSINESS: There was general discussion of the use of PayPal for members to join and renew membership in the Club. It was moved, seconded and passed to begin using PayPal for memberships effective in April, 2015. The Secretary has made the necessary changes to the renewal form for the use of PayPal. A copy of the revised form was shared with members present and is attached to and made a part of these minutes. The Well Armed Women have requested a change in their range times. This was approved. The calendar will be changed on the Club’s web site. They now have 3 Range Safety Officers. The Grand Valley Training Club has furnished us with proof of liability insurance. A copy is attached to and made a part of these Minutes. The project to replace the target shed roof was discussed. Art Bennett has a bid for $2,834.00. Tom Mathews, Chairman of the Board of Directors, will get additional bids and we will select one of them.
NEW BUSINESS: Steve Fenske , a Club member, proposed having one of his subcontractors with his business apply a soil sterilent to the west side of the parking lot and the gravel paths on the North Range. This product does not require rain to activate as the product we used before did. Steve will submit a formal bid to the Club. It was moved, seconded and passed to spend up to $400.00 on this project. The Schutzen shooters present at the Meeting proposed the Schutzen Matches be moved to the day of Members Meetings each month on the North Range. This would free the Sunday’s they normally shoot for open shooting on the North Range. They will meet with the remaining Schutzen shooters for their opinion and inform the Club if they want this change and the calendar will be changed on the Club’s web site if they agree among themselves to make this change.
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business to come before the members, it was moved, seconded and passed to adjourn. The Meeting was adjourned at 8:19 PM by the President.
Respectfully submitted,
Jeff Howard Secretary
