Presidents Report:

This summer, June we will do the TCA convention at the Windom Hotel June 28, 29 and 30.  The club will most likely pay parking expenses.  Although the convention runs June24 through July 2, we will be involved from Wed. through Sat.  There will be an AMTRAK trip to Altoona, you must purchase your own ticket.

We will not participate in the summer Greenberg show.

Warren reports that the Scenic Express tour will likely be later in the year.

Bill Baldwin reports that the History center will take longer than expected because they discovered painted murals and have hired someone to restore them.

The club logo has been chosen and is presented on the web site, ours and the TCA’s.  The issue of shirts and badges is being considered along with ballpoint pens.

 

Treasurers Report:

The treasury remains in good shape.  The club will reimburse for parking at the Windom.
