The lack of a bridge on number one on Linkside was discussed and the board will contact Lynn & Bill regarding our feeling that that is the number issue for us.

Social Chairman Report

Jim could not be at the meeting but the discussion revolved around having several more dine-a-rounds this year, that everyone liked ordering off the menu and it made planning easier. Suggested site were Bocca Real Italian, Schwaben House, City Range and Flat rock grill. The hope was to have 4 to 5 events. The Christmas dinner will be on December 8 at the Cascades
