OLD BUSINESS
President Wright brought the board up to date with details pertaining to the Oscoda range. The DNR is offering the club a 50-acre parcel and is requesting a site plan including a detailed scale drawing and property description. Negotiations for additional property would come in the future. The board passed a motion to refuse the 50-acre offer unless a sound option for at least an additional 50 acres is made. Bob Stalker suggested to President Wright that in order for the club to obtain 100 acres or more, another trip to Lansing would probably be necessary. Director McKinney will begin preparing a site plan for 50 acres so the board meets the DNR requirements should a satisfactory agreement be accepted.
Director McKinney will speak with Director Moehler regarding the porta potty for the range and the NRA insurance quotes.
