December Meeting Minutes - EAA Chapter 704 Meeting

December 13th, 2004 7:00 p.m.

Snacks and pizza were consumed prior to the meeting, which was called to order by P.J. Bevelacqua, the only officer present.

Vic Johnson filled us in on the new MDOT programs that would be available in 2005.

The annual election of officers was held. Ron Fritz is our new president, Kathy Hakeem is vice-president, and continues as Young Eagles manager. Sue Folkringa remains treasurer, and Jay Dean is our new secretary. Dan Bauman continues as technical advisor, and P.J. Bevelacqua will continue to handle newsletters, future Web site, and anything else we can stick him with.

We voted to continue having meetings in January and February, and discussed having a banquet at a restaurant or banquet facility. Ron Fritz will check out details, and we will make a decision at the January meeting.

There will be a meeting of the new officers at Sparta Airport, Sunday January 2nd.

We discussed the relative merits of adopting a project (acquiring an airplane or kit to rebuild/build), and of confining our meetings to presentations instead. The matter was tabled for future discussion.

The new officers’ paperwork was gotten out of the way, and the meeting was adjourned at 8:30 p.m.

Submitted by Doug Lugthart,
filling in for Secretary Sue Folkringa.
