The meeting was called to order by out-going president, Ivan Brown.
The first order of business was the report by the Vice President, Bob Gough. He is working on the spring show already, and said that Catherine Segovia is making up some fliers to distribute around town.
***Bob is also making plans to obtain a turned vase with a brass plazue to be presented to the winner of Best of Show. He also has some ideas about a different presentation for the winner of the Cook's Choice.
***He suggested that we send personal invitations to the Spokane carving club, because of their enthusiastic support of our show.
***A chain-saw carved bench by Butch Elrod will be offered for auction to the public during the coming year. It will be displayed at different local businesses throughout the year, the first being Meyers Auto Tech. The winner will be drawn at the November, 2011 business meeting. Tickets will be $5 each. The cost to obtain a license for a public auction is $58, and the limit is $5000 in profits.
