L.I.P.S.A. Newsletter
January 2008
Annual Meeting: Was held Dec. 9, 2007 following the IPSC
Match. The election of Officers for 2008 was part of the work that
was done. Elected were:
Frank Fellini, Pres., Tony Bykov, Vice Pres., George Schmaeling,
Treas., Arthur Search, Range Master, Joe Procopio, Stats. As a
group we want to thank the club for the confidence they expressed
in us by re-electing the whole Board of Directors from 2007.
However, we must confess that we feel it has more to do with no
one else wanting to take on these jobs rather than any sterling
qualities of our own.
Renewals: This is the last month that current members are
guaranteed a spot on the 2008 club roster. Following Jan. 31,
2008, you will only be given a spot if one is available. There is a
growing list of recommended people waiting up for spots that will
become available on Feb. 1st. If you are interested in staying with
the club you need to get a move on.
The lock on the gate has been changed. Only the 2008 key will
allow access to the range.
