Tom
Peterson can get a large Cat to the track from a friend of his near Northfield. Rob M=

stated that he had worked an arrangement to get equipment to the track and =

willing to do the track work this spring. There was general agreement that =

options sounded good and to let Rob and Tom work out which one would work o=

best.
o&nb=
sp;
It
was agreed that there has been some problems with communication in the past
regarding the grading. To prevent this in the future, we’ll do two
things. First, only people on “The List” can give direction =
to
the equipment operator and right now, The List is Tom Peterson (more to=
be
added as needed). Also, a simple written contract will be used, specifying:=

The
Well Project – Still nothing to report. Since he was out of the room =

·
The
Fence Project – Yes, we do have one. The fence along 70 is incomplete=
and
an eyesore. It was agreed to (quite a while ago) that we should replace it =
with
permanent metal fence the whole length of the north border (minus the curre=
nt
gate). Mark Krey volunteered to figure out some costs and bring them to the
next meeting. It was also agreed to put in another gate, east of the one th=

grade or drop gravel.

Blue
Hills (aka Stone Lake) – There are 12 miles
arrowed. Some of it will be fairly easy to clear, but there are also parts =
that
will be pretty tough.
·
Enduro
Banquet – A rather modest club turn-out. Didn’t get the Enduro =
of

Fastner gave us the highlights of his regular meeting with ARMCA ,DNR =
·
Motion
made and passed to set aside 2000 dollars to be used for next year’s
taxes or future projects. Rather than a separate bank account, it will
initially just be a reporting change.
