NEW BUSINESS:
Storage Shed - We have put off the initial phase of constructing the new storage shed at the Fort location due to weather conditions. Honk as taken some preliminary measurements and sizes. Upon a 2nd investigation, he has also found that the existing shed that we were going to be adding to is not set on any kind of foundation. This can cause problems in the construction of our new shed in the long haul. The committee will be in touch with Bob Brown to discuss possible alternatives and solutions. The committee is Honk Meyer, Zona Lindemann and Pete Addeo.
Newsletter Editor & MIS Website - Pete Addeo says the MIS website with the domain name of http://www.missoulairis.com, is up and running but needs text, information from members to fill in the blanks. He would like the members to become active in keeping the website new and exciting. Any information or articles of interest that you can find or contribute would be appreciated.
