Old Business
1st Anuual Air Show: It is important to note from the July meeting that we intend to put a committee in place in time to prepare for the 2005 Air Show.
We particularly want to find ways to draw spectators to the event so that we can at least break even in terms of the cost involved in putting on the event as we lost several hundred dollars this year.
It is important to also note that this was our 1st time hosting this event and it really went very well in every other respect.

New Business
AMA Elections: Dave Mathewson is running for President of the AMA. He has been a good supporter of our Club. He has been to our events. Show our appreciation by voting for him when you renew your AMA license.
