Committee Reports
a.
Website – Ron Laughlin
1.
Ron was not present but reported through a committee member
that he would like to keep the web site up for the next 5 years until the 50th
which would cost about $ 750. He requested that the committee consider this
expenditure before setting the price for the 2006 tickets. This request was tabled
until the December meeting when we will set the ticket price.
b.
Reunion Location – Roger Lauer
1.
Roger and Earl plan to meet with Joe Tennyson before the
December meeting to finalize the menus and cost of meals. Tentative menus were
listed in the October minutes.
C.
Golf – Les Davis
1.
Les reported that her was in the process of contacting 3 or
4 courses to get prices. Part of the problem is they do not set their 2006
price until the Spring.
2.
Several committee members thought that Red Rocks would be a
new course that classmates had not played and asked Les to check on that.
3.
There was also interest in the cost for just 9 holes vs. 18
holes if some did not want to play all day.
D.
Inside Activities
1.
Inside activities were discussed and committee members
volunteered to help as coordinators of several activities. Bragging table; Mary
Margaret and Margee, Bridge Tournament; Janet and Sharing Memories; Mary Jo.

The committee is still in need of several coordinators for
inside activities as noted in Annex A. Email Toni or Ron or come to the
December meeting and help us out.
E.
Outside Activities

Outside activities were discussed and a trip to the Prairie
Berry Winery in Hill City was added to the list with Sandra (Johnson)
McCambridge as coordinator.

still try and contact Chuck Tenant as coordinator for the Hike Skyline Drive
Wilderness Area.
