Tuesday, May 29, 2007 - Meeting Notes
The meeting was called to order a few minutes early, the weather was so nice we wanted to get back out there & fly.

Dave Q. read the notes from the April meeting, there were no corrections or additions to be made. He then read the treasurer's report which was accepted without any changes or modifications.

Old Business:

Wings of Mercy is this next Saturday - June 2nd, 2007. We need to be there by 7:00 to setup, and then the event starts at 7:30 and runs until around noon. Todd O. will be bringing a large screen TV to display videos as well as a computer so we will be able to have the G3 flight sim running for entertaining the kids.

We'll be setting up in the same location as last year - the Executive Air Hanger for those of you who do not know.

The club trainer is complete and ready to fly. It is now in the shed - who is going to put the next trim flight on it? Lyle said he doesn't want to do it because of what happened the last time he flew it.

Our mascot is now living under the shed - if anyone knows how to get a skunk to move on, please help it find a new home.

The solar frequency sniffer project is going to work just fine. Todd O is going to order what is needed and get it setup.

Glen is going to fix the mower that Sid Johnson donated. Sid didn't know the transmision casing was cracked when he donated it. Bill & Todd found out when the loaded it up for the trip to the field. Thanks for volunteering to help Glen!

For those who are mowing the field, we appreciate the help - but please do not put the mower deck below the last notch! Someone has scalped the grass very badly and it has already burnt. We'd like to have a green field for the fun fly and that new burnt yellow strip just doesn't look good at all!

Bill D. was able to get TruGreen out for a weed & feed treatment. We didn't see a single dandelion on the field. Thanks for helping get a great deal on that Bill!

The PCRC Fun Fly on June 24th:

Bill D is going to pick up the food - burgers and hotdogs & all the fixins. Club members are still asked to bring a dish to pass as well as everyone bring your own soft drinks. There is a little confusion as to who is supposed to call to get the port-o-jon pumped, but it needs to be done now as well as the Friday before the Fun Fly.

There will be a few competitions, talk to Lyle for the details on those. We are also going to be having a raffle for that stuff you no longer use. Don't bring your old busted garbage - bring stuff that is too good to be thrown away, but not really worth anything to you either.

We will be needing coffee cans for the raffle - many coffee cans. So if you are bringing items to donate to the raffle, please try to bring a coffee can for each item. Lyle and others were talking about an interesting way to raffle the stuff, I'm not 100% sure that I could describe it right, but it sounds like fun. So please bring your items to donate and a can to go with each item!
(Extra cans will be welcome.)

Joe Clark Sr was voted on for a free membership for 2007 for his fund raising help last year. Something about him being the guy who helped to donate a plane that was raffled. Thanks JOE!!!

You should all start seeing some new faces floating around the field. We've had quite a few new members lately and I don't have all their names so I'll just say welcome to all the new PCRC members.

Final note, Dave has submitted the list to the wastewater for the wastewater passes. Everyone is supposed to have one on their vehicle though we have never heard of anyone being checked to see if they have one. It's the process... so what the heck.

The meeting was adjourned with plenty of time to spare for a few flights.
