Reminder : There will be a meeting, to finalize the Spaghetti Supper details, at Linda & Gary Greenwood's on French Rd - Wednesday April 28, 2010 at 7pm.
The March meeting was held at the Dalton Town Hall on March 13th. The Secretary and Treasurer’s reports were read and accepted by the members.
The Radar Run/Pig Roast was a success considering how little snow we had. It was discussed that next year we need to form a committee that will go out 3 months prior to the event and get sponsors. As always, our many thanks to everyone that came out and helped with this event.
We now have the deed to the land that abuts the new bridge at Scott’s Junction. Bob Stiles requested that he would appreciate it if the club could reimburse him the money he spent for the paperwork that transferred the ownership of the land to the Dalton Ridge Runners. The club voted to reimburse him
Our next big fund raiser will be the spaghetti dinner on May 7th, from 5 – 8PM, at the Town Hall. Tim O’Neil is holding his rally that weekend, so we are expecting a VERY large crowd.
We are still waiting to hear from Bombardier about the money from all the entries the club made during their million dollar promo.
Even though the fun season has ended, as always, there are many new projects that have to be addressed. Just a few of our upcoming projects:
4 bridges on the power line by the Top of the Hill need to be redecked
Dan Lufkin’s bridges by the covered bridge also need to be redecked.
The bridges in Forbes field need to be screwed down.
There may need to be a reroute of a section of trail north of Rte. 142 off of the railroad bed.
The club discussed new junction signs. These wooden signs would be routed and painted. They would have aluminum brackets on the back to avoid rusting.
It was also mentioned that we still have a great deal of items that were left over from last summer’s yard sale. The club agreed to hold one more sale and then we would get rid of whatever else was left. A date for the yard sale has yet to be decided.
The next meeting will be held April 10th. It will be a club cookout and will be held at Allen and Nancy Rexford’s.
Sad to say, but the season (short as it was) has come to an end. The gates have been closed and the signs have been removed.
Thanks to everyone that has made this another safe and successful year.
See you on the trails December 15, 2010 Trails open in 152 Days
