     George Conover called the meeting to order with 15 members present.  The minutes of May 13, 2008 were read.  One correction:  The APBA Grant Check was for $725.00.  The treasurer’s report was read and accepted as read.  Report on file.

     Order forms for shirts were sent out to all members.  The more shirts we sell the more profit for out club.

     The Special Trophy will be for the two day event and will be awarded by Mrs. Murphy after the Races on Sunday.  John Fitzgerald mad a motion for this and Jack Stetser second.  All in favor by a show of hands none opposed.  Motion carried.

     Mrs. Murphy would like to have a picnic for all of our volunteers.  A suggestion was made that maybe they could also be WRBA guests at the Christmas Party.

     Mitch Brown reported on his findings about the shuttle bus and driver.  Approximately $57.00 per hour.  A large van would be cheaper and would be more practical.

     Warren Brown reported on the Police Explorers.  They have the date available.  There will be two explorers at each gate.  The usual donation is $200.00  Warren made a motion to allocate $200.00 for the donation.  Frank Beck second the motion and all in favor, non opposed.  Motion carried.

     Frank Beck gave us an update on the Program Book.  The committee has met and came up with a form for our advertisers.  Talked with a few printers and some were too expensive.  Thinking about laying out the book themselves.  Class sponsors will have a place in the book on page with the class they are sponsoring.  Working on some different ideas.  There will be no GNH class this year due to no boats in that class running.  Only 7 classes this year.

     George Conover is working on tow vehicles.  Looking at tractors for this year, if not, then the pickup trucks again.

     John Fitzgerald told us of Dujy D’Eathe, Tom D’Eath’s wife, passing away.  John has sent a card to family on behalf of WRBA.

     Mitch Brown reported that the TV ads on Channel 40 have a video that is available to us that just need a voice over.  Speed Vision is from 5am to 12pm - $5.00 per 30 second ad in certain counties.  Mitch will get more information and let us know at next meeting.
