At 6 p.m. Brenda welcomed everyone and thanked the committees, especially Doris Been for helping. Brenda then introduced Don Wilson and Cathy and Roy Klobnak who entertained with a medley of songs.

Brenda gave the invocation preceding a delicious buffet dinner of roast beef, oven fried chicken, scalloped potatoes, vegetables and salad. A variety of homemade pies was dessert. We appreciate the Tingley Wagon Wheel Cafe preparing and serving the meal.

Glen Tull called the meeting to order. He commented that he was especially happy to be present this year as one month ago he had quadruple bypass heart surgery.

Glen called secretary Jenesse Tull to give the report of the last banquet. It was approved as read. Glen called treasurer Mary Sue McIntosh for her report. She reported a balance of $476.54. Also this report was approved as read.

Sue Richards brought attention to the new ceiling and lights installed in the community building. She stated the next project will be new flooring at an estimated cost of $12,000. A grant has been applied for assistance with this cost.
