NEW BUSINESS:
1. Don said the car show at Swisher would like us to throw their coozies out of our planes again this year ... around noon.  Tim and Mark volunteered.  Have fun guys!
2. Steve Jilovec (L3 owner) received his tailwheel endorsement today.  CONGRATULATIONS STEVE!
3. Our annual PumpkinSplat!, which is a Foundation event, is October 21 with October 28 as the rain date.  According to Rick, the Foundation president, this will really be two events in one.  The first will be just a fun event where the participants are just trying to see who can land their pumpkin closest to the target.  The second will be dropping pumpkins for the possibility of winning a $10,000.00 grand prize!!!  The competitor in this group who lands their pumpkin closest to the target will win the right to choose one money bag from a group of 100.  One of those bags will contain the $10,000.00 grand prize.  Choose the right bag and you're $10,000.00 richer!!
Rick moved with second by Randy that we adjourn.  Vote taken; Motion carried.  Meeting adjourned at 7:07 PM.
