March 2013 Meeting Minutes

March 2013 Meeting Minutes

(Editor's note: Our esteemed secretary had another obligation this month so these minutes are a conglomeration of President Dave's agenda and your friendly editor's failing memory.)

The meeting began with the Pledge of Allegiance, Dave Doherty presiding.

Meeting minutes from February were accepted.
Don Doherty gave the Treasurer's Report.
We welcomed Visitors. No new members this month.

Lifetime Membership: $450.00 onetime payment. Can be made with 3 easy payments of $150.00. This includes Chapter 32 membership for life (nontransferrable) and a chapter accessory. Current thinking is a fleece jacket with the EAA32 logo sewn on the back with a monogrammed name on the front.

St. Louis Science Center – IMAX Movie – AIR RACERS – March 8. Chapter 32 participated for Aviation Day at the Science Center. We brought the exhibition booth and the Sonerei, and staffed a table with info about EAA and General Aviation. Mike Saettele's Porta Sim flight simulators were a big hit.
