Our February, 2008 meeting was held on Tuesday, February 5 at 8 p.m. in the Municipal Authority meeting room in Richboro.  Seven members were in attendance.  My notes follow:

• Barry reported that the club has paid all of its obligations for 2007 and is starting 2008 with a small balance.
• We held elections.¬† Ron Feindt, Barry Weiner, Dave Weldin and I were re-elected as president, treasurer, safety officer and secretary, respectively.¬† Rich Rycharski was not able to attend because of family obligations, so we postponed the election of a vice president until the March meeting.
• Dave is planning to enter us into the AMA Intro Pilot program again this year.¬† Jack, Dave and I are on the list.¬† If any other member would be willing to serve please contact Dave.
• Jon Warfield has done an outstanding job of updating our website.¬† Check it out when you get a chance: www.skypirates.org¬†¬†¬† I have looked over a lot of RC club websites and I think ours is one of the best.
• This year’s WRAM show is February 22 -24.¬† Dave is planning on attending on either Friday or Saturday.¬† There are a couple of interesting seminars on those days, not on Sunday.¬† If anyone is interested please contact Dave.
