Membership - The Membership Committee under Fred Kane continues to look for new ways to reach recent GM retirees with information about the Club in hopes that they will find activities to their liking.
 

Activities - Year to date our six regular activities have been very successful and we look forward to the same activities next year under our new leadership.  Most recently, the Summer Socials under the new leadership of Larry Parker enjoyed one-half good weather and total good fellowship. The trip to the Tiger's game coordinated by John Fox was fully subscribed and lost no participants (the tigers won). The tour of the Delta Plant coordinated with Randy Thayer's staff by Larry Lennon was enjoyed by a good number of Club members and their guests. At this time, future tours will not resume until 2008. Larry Koster's efforts in arranging the details for the annual meeting luncheon are essentially complete. All in all, a good event year.
 

Financial - After many years of faithful service as Club Treasurer, Jack Cooper has decided to step down. He leaves the Club in solid financial condition. The Board continues to work on developing ideas to accommodate the increasing costs of doing our regular business without increasing annual dues. A limited number of copies of the financial report for the past two years will be available at the annual business meeting.
 

Communications - With Don Sokoloski as Editor, our newsletter continues to bring our members information on the Club’s activities. Later this year we will be issuing the updated version of the Club roster, which will be mailed with the December newsletter. Fred Kane's efforts to maintain the Membership Roster provide a valuable resource,, especially to our out-of-state members. The Club's Web site at www.gmlsrc.org is attracting improved traffic to this Club service. With the efforts of Don Sokoloski and Dan Foltz providing continuing site improvements, we expect the trend to continue.
