Film: Showing of "An Unfortunate Truth" can't be organized for October; we'll keep trying.
AGM : Considered a success with Chris Miller being an excellent speaker. Attendance was lower than hoped for. Would returning to a day-time meeting help? Is an "issue" needed to generate interest?

Jean McHarg made and Neiff Joseph seconded a motion to purchase two more signs to face the other direction – Carried. Bob Fulleman is to write a letter to DNR to compliment on Maughan's excellent job of servicing the porta-potties this summer and to mention reports of the poor condition of units at Risser's Park.
