There was a discussion about the lack of support for clean up in Louisiana, apparently they are not getting the help or funds they need. Deron will check into the need for sponsorship for airboat clubs that are willing to help.
James gave a report on his trip to Lake of the Ozarks. Sounds like a great time.
A club ride in Alexander Springs was brought up. All were in support but with few members attending the meeting, the plans will be done at the next meeting.
There is apparently lack of interest in the Astor Christmas Parade but if it happens, all were in favor of taking part in both the street & river parades. Deron & James will post our interest & support on Facebook & see what reponse the get.
