Monthly Newsletter of the Wildcat Hills Good Sam Club
Your Humble Editor Speaks
I know, I know it isn’t official yet, but maybe by the time I get this out we will have a Charter. I am getting so excited that I just can’t wait. So, I thought I would put my energy into our new Chapter.
As you can see the job of Asst. State Director Is real tough.
Please print this newsletter and frame it under glass. The first issue is always valuable. I figure with inflation it will worth 10 cents in a few years.
The Ball Starts Rolling at The State Samboree
A few of us were in Hastings at The Nebraska State Samboree and we met with Fred Hatch our State Director, Carla Gries the incoming State Director and Dennis Butcher our Asst Director. They reviewed the Constitution and By-Laws and asked about a zillion questions and then helped us fill out the application for a Charter. Fred said it should be done in a couple weeks. I’ve been anxiously waiting for the news ever since.
I have a confession to make. Everyone praised me on the quality of the Constitution and By-laws for our new chapter. I accepted the praise and took all the credit. In truth the By-laws came from Bart’s notes that were from your input. Thank you to all of you for your help.
First Unofficial Meeting
We had our first official/unofficial meeting on Thursday evening, June 10th at the Bartow’s house. Jim had copies of the Constitution/ By-laws for everyone and Denny read it paragraph by paragraph. We had several questions that lead to a few changes and some things just had to be defined and or explained. We set the dues at $15.00 per year. We also decided that our campouts/meetings will be on the second week of the month so as not to interfere with the two other Chapters in the area.
Our group discussed the possibility of requesting a $25.00 loan from each Charter Member to help get things started. This would be refundable when we get solvent.
I made the corrections Friday morning to get the Bylaws to Tom and Bart who were leaving for Hastings on Friday afternoon. We are confident that next month we will have the Charter signing.
Happy Camping – Linda & Jim
