Special Olympics
We again have the opportunity to help run the softball throw
at the Special Olympics, University of N.H., Saturday, June 7.
Members who wish to participate should plan on registering at
8:30a and stay to the event's end around 3:00p. Right now, Acting
Chair Randy Eifert is planning on attending with at least one
daughter.

Win a Classic!
Chair Paul Cotton acknowledged the members who attended the Auto
Show Saturday last: Paul Cotton, Warren Mitchell, Phil Bonafide,
Don and Sue Nelson, and Michael Bastraw. The Motorcycle Week
schedule also made the rounds again. Here is the updated version.
As you can see, we are still a bit thin on some shifts. If you
can't make a scheduled shift, find your own replacement and let
Chair Paul Cotton know. Parking is available at Thurston's Marine
and Past Pres. Joe Adrignola's house. Members should plan on
turning in all tickets and monies Monday next.

Bylaws
Laws and Regulations Chair Phil Bonafide presented the proposed
changes to our bylaws and policies and procedures. After discussion
and minor modifications, the changes were adopted by the membership
present. Key among them was removing the 30% of total membership
cap for creating Senior Members. Now the Boards will set a number
at the first meeting in October that will limit how many Senior
Members the club will hold for the year.
Immediate Past Pres. Phil Bonafide's long hours of work came down to a few minutes discussion and a job done well.

Goodbye, Joe
Pres. Larry Murphy read Pres.-Elect Joe Collie's letter of resignation.
He will be starting a new job at WZID in Manchester which will
include our meeting times. It is a good step up with "more
opportunities." He will be staying in the area and if thing's
change, he would very much like to return. Good luck, Joe, and
thanx.
And That Means...
The Boards must nominate replacements for Pres.-Elect and one
Vice Pres. With one-week notification, the club will then vote.

by Past Pres. Michael
Bastraw
How about having the
Boards minutes presented to the club in a more timely manner--say,
at the next regular meeting? Then we would hear about it before
it is old news.
