The meeting was called to order at 8:02 pm by President Tom Grimm - 30 Club members/guests present.
Roll Call of Officers: Absent – Brian Codere, Jim/Laura Hamlett and Mick Jarvi
Secretary and Treasurer’s reports were read and approved. Our Fishing Derby shows a profit slightly more than last year.
New Members were introduced.
Communications: The Sportsman’s Monthly magazine was received.
Committee Reports:
House: Jim Hamlett sprayed the building with insecticide.
Trap: Heusinkveld announced there will be no trap shooting on July 4.
Rifle Range: The work bee went well. For personal reasons, Sever cannot continue as range chairman.
Hunter Ed: Machiela attended an Instructor’s Workshop in Ontonagon County on Tuesday. There will be another workshop at our Club on July 20. All instructors and potential instructors are invited. The Hunter Ed class will be July 17, 24, 31, and August 3.
Affiliations:
CMP: Rick Strieter mentioned that some of the .45’s purchased from the CMP have been showing up on-line for sale which is against CMP policy. The sellers will not be able to purchase any firearms from CMP in the future. He encouraged members to check-out CMP’s Website. There is a link from our Web page.
Old Business:
Fishing Derby: Tom thanked all, members and friends, who helped make the Derby successful. He also thanked those who helped on the rifle range work bee.
Fryer is still working on getting the 4-H rifle program started.
4th of July float. As the Hamlett’s are out of town, we are not sure if we can gain access to their trailer. Grimm will get in touch with them. The plan is to build the float at 1 PM on July 3. Update: Hamlett’s trailer is buried in the garage with lots of stuff on it. JP Moyle has a new trailer that we can use. Grimm will pick it up and bring it to the Club grounds.
New Business:
Calumet Shooting Range: The hours are sketchy, but Bob Andersen has access. He would like to set-up a shoot for our members.
He is also looking at plans to improve our hand gun range.
A motion was made and seconded to treat the Chairmen/spouse of the rifle range, trap range, and grounds with a dinner not to exceed $50. Discussion followed. Comments opposed included, “Not a good idea because organizations that do this tend to go downhill”. “Where do we draw the line? Many members do good things.” “Acknowledgement is enough pay for volunteers.”
The vote was 9 yes, 11 no - motion failed.
The 50/50 of $27 was won by Heusinkveld.
Next month’s meeting will be held at the Club at 8:00 PM. A meal will be discussed in the coming weeks.
Meeting adjourned at 8:48 pm
