Innis Arden Volunteers--- Past and Present

In 1970, when Dick Campbell was President of the Board, Innis Arden had no playfield.  What is now the playfield was a swamp. The present field was created by bulldozing and draining, followed by the addition of soil obtained free from nearby building sites. Perforated tile was laid in the children’s play area to drain water off to the north end of the property. The walls were constructed from railroad ties (approximately 2000) he obtained free for the hauling. They were drilled and pinned with ½ inch bars, at least 4 to a tie. For every one visible now, there are about 9 that cannot be seen. Dick says that the construction is so overbuilt it should last forever. He spent his weekends for about two years working on this project. Below, Dick is at the north end of the playfield, where the retaining wall he built is 13 feet high.

 

At a recent Friday Night BBQ, Tracy and Knut Landboe and other members from the Activities Committee get a little help from their friends while they remove an old, unsafe play structure at the Innis Arden Playground.  The Committee is sponsoring the purchase of new equipment and other upgrades, which will make the grounds a safer place to play.  More work parties are in the works!  Mark your calendars for Friday, August 10th as we combine our TGIF Picnic with a "Chip Party”. Chip in and help us spread wood chips, and lots of it, for the play area!!  Please call Tracy Landboe at 542-1807 if you can help.

Activities Committee Announcements

This year's Salmon BBQ will be held Wednesday, September 12th from 6 to 8pm. Mary and Tim Cleaveland are the organizers of the event, so if you can lend a helping hand, call them at 533-9580.  Once again, save the date--September 12th--Salmon BBQ at the clubhouse grounds!

TGIF PICNICS-still going strong!!!  Come join us and celebrate, "Thank Goodness it's Friday” at our Family Summer Barbeque Nights at the club grounds.  Invite your neighbors too. We have all sorts of folks joining us, new residents and long timers. Bring a picnic dinner and cook your own meat or fish on our community grill. If you don't want to picnic, come anyway to meet neighbors and enjoy the outdoors. TGIF Picnics are every Friday starting at 6:30 pm (look for signs posted around the community). Open swim starts at 7:45 pm. Of course, all of this is weather permitting.

The city of Shoreline is having its annual parade on August 18th to celebrate its incorporation. We have been asked as a community to participate in the parade. Judy Allen is chairing this effort, but she still needs plenty of help so please call her at 542-3219 if you can donate some time to this worthwhile event

Awards Party for the Junior Tennis Team is Wednesday, August 8th at 7:00 pm at the Innis Arden Clubhouse.  Cookies and beverages will be provided. Players and families are welcome.

Wanted: Someone who likes to make fun happen!

The Activities Committee is looking for more active members.  We sponsor events such as the Rummage Sale, Easter Egg Hunt, the Salmon BBQ, the Annual Holiday Party and just recently developed an IA Playground Project Plan to update the current play structures and play area. The Rummage Sale is our big money maker which enables us to support these activities. We also have a hospitality committee to greet newcomers moving into IA. If you would like to participate in any of these activities, or be a part of this committee, please call Chris Kocher, Co-Chair of the Activities Committee, at 533-1223 or email Chriskocher@mindspring.com . We will be glad to send you reminders of our meetings. Come join us!

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor:

I want to take issue with a statement in the last bulletin on page 3 in the Neighbor to Neighbor box.  The statement reads “Yet trees designed to grow 100-200 feet and more are commonly planted as hedges in Innis Arden.”  Although it may appear to the writer that these “hedges” have been planted, it is hard to believe that it is common that they have been intentionally planted.  Douglas Firs do grow very well here.  After all they were the dominant native tree in this area.  The birds bring the seeds and the trees pop up every where.  When the tall trees are gone in Innis Arden, however, the birds will be gone also.   At that point we will not have to worry about Douglas Firs popping up every where.

Sincerely,

Nancy Rust  

Meeting Minutes of the July 10th, 2001 Board Meeting

Board Members Present:  David Fosmire, June Howard, Kate Laskin, Roger Lowell, Elaine Phelps, Jim Skeel, Al Wagar

Board Members Absent:  Bob Allen, Pam Smit

Community members present:  24+

The minutes of June 5, 2001 were amended to add the following:

The Treasurer submitted a written and oral report.

The minutes were approved as amended.

GUEST SPEAKER  Sgt. Don Ellis, of the Shoreline Police was the guest presenter.  He said that he had received a call asking him to talk about Block Watch:  “If you watch your block, it won’t get stolen”.  Instead, he was prepared to answer questions. 

Mail theft:  Checks in outgoing mail are being stolen and washed and reused.  People should check their bank statements.  If checks are missing, stop payment on them.  Incoming mail can also be targeted.  These cases are hard to prosecute.

Traffic:  There’s a Neighborhood Traffic Safety Program (NTSP) being instituted.  Call the Customer Response Team (CRT) 546-1776.  On non-arterial streets, there are several ways of dealing with traffic problems - engineering, stop signs, etc.  The radar device is only good for those who are concerned about obeying the law.    The CRT is open 24 hours a day.  For some events, they provide an emergency response. 

Parties in the Reserves:  Call 911, we can usually arrive in 10 minutes for something urgent.  911 is now used for both emergency and non-emergency calls; the 911 operator will direct your call to where it should go. 

Patrolling & Burglaries:  Each patrol has its own district.  Adam 1 car patrols this area.  The parking lot does get patrolled.  So far as he knows, it is not true that any IA areas have more burglaries than others.  Detective Sgt. Kanauss, 546-7863 does crime analysis, and would have information on this.   The typical place for “fencing” stolen items from this area would be Lynnwood.  Pawnshops have to give police a record of everything they take in, and the Sheriff’s office gets records from Lynnwood and other places, but they don’t match up pawnshop records with burgled items.  That’s the job of the detectives who are assigned to a specific burglary, and they should work with the victims who can ask about checking pawnshop receipts.  If you are a victim, you should have your case number to contact the detective on your case. 

Private patrols:  Someone asked about private patrols, as they have in Blue Ridge.  We did look into this in the past, and found that it was too expensive, but perhaps we should check into it again. 

Motorized scooters:  They must be licensed; it’s illegal to drive them on public streets without a license; they’re treated like motorcycles. 

Pool security:  If you use cameras, it depends on the resolution of the tape as to how useful they may be.  Barbed wire should be o.k.  Good to keep the area well lit at night.

CITY MATCHING GRANTS  Carol Solle reported that we need either matching funds or the equivalent in labor.  The deadline for submissions was June 30.  Nancy Rust said that when we gave our grant to Sunset School for their tile project, they contributed the labor.  North City has put up flower baskets and has other beautification projects.  Anyone who would be interested in checking this out for possible participation by IA in the future, please call Roger Lowell, 546-0128. These grants are for public projects, not for private property.

RONALD SUB-AREA  Kreuger e-mailed Board members to see if any of them would like to work on planning for the Aurora Corridor (175th - 195th).  Solle said that there are two meetings scheduled, July 17 and July 24 at the Shoreline Historical Museum.

CITY COUNCIL  Solle announced that tapes of Shoreline City Council meetings are viewable on TV, Channel 21, Wednesday-Sunday at 6:00 a.m., 12 noon, and 8:00 p.m.  The Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Monday of each month at Shoreline Center.

MAIL THEFTS  There have been a number of mail thefts in the IA area.  It is unwise to leave outgoing mail containing checks in your mailbox (see item on GUEST SPEAKER above).

FENCING FOR EAGLE RESERVE    Jim Skeel described in detail the fence proposed to be built to reduce access to Eagle Reserve by nonresidents.  He reported that All City Fence had submitted a bid for $7,285.  Skeel made the following motion, which was lost by a vote of 4 yes, 3 no (a majority of the entire Board is required to pass any Board action, so 5 votes are currently needed).  Motion:  The Board agrees to pay All City Fence to build the fence described for a total of $7,500 including sales tax.

Points made during the discussion of the motion: the bid does not include lock or keys; if the fence is built, it should have the same key as the Boeing Reserve fence;  we should get competitive bids; consult Shoreline police for statistics regarding incidents in the area; a lot of garbage is dumped there, and far more partying in this reserve than in others; perhaps Burlington would give us a grant to help prevent people from crossing their tracks; neighborhood Block Watch would be better than a fence, to preserve open access to reserves;  there is no one in the immediate area able to do Block Watch; what about a private patrol; a key would allow access; we need more than one key  issued to a family; the signs we posted are gone and should be replaced.  Skeel will look into the cost of a private patrol.

MANDATORY DUES  Ewa Sledziewski reported that much progress had been made, especially in IA 2, in getting signatures for the mandatory dues amendment.  In I and 3 we are short very few signatures.  She reported that residents have a number of issues: views, speeding, parked boats and campers, garage sales and signs, etc., and expressed the hope that more people would take part in community life, be friendlier, and extend a helping hand.  Lowell thanked her for her hard work.

            There is an error in the amendment:  IA is referred to as a non-profit organization, but it is a for-profit organization.  After discussion Al Wagar proposed the following motion to deal with this, and it was passed 7-0.

Board Action:  All signers of the mandatory dues amendment shall be informed by a first-class letter of the error in the form pertaining to non-profit status.  The letter shall also include the information that for IA #1, paragraph “16” should read paragraph “17”.

Kate will write the letter.

(Al Wagar moved and Kate Laskin seconded a motion to amend the minutes of the July 10, 2001 meeting for the motion call for mailing a letter to the signers of the dues amendment.  The motion now states:

All signers of the mandatory dues amendment shall be informed of the error in the form pertaining to non-profit status and to the fact that the Innis Arden #1 petition  "Section 16" should read Section "17."  They shall be sent individually addressed letters using the Innis Arden bulk mailing permit. Motion passed with 6 for and none against.)

VIEW INFORMATION COMMITTEE 

Building & Remodels Policy

Marc Weinberg read the suggested changes to the Building & Remodels Policy that would require compliance with the view amendment before a remodel could be approved.  Among other brief references, it is proposed to add a new section 5, which would read as follows (the part in quotes is from the covenants):

5.  The Innis Arden Board of Directors requires that “No noxious or undesirable thing, trade or business or noxious or undesirable use of the property in said Addition whatsoever shall be permitted or maintained upon said property, or in said Addition. If the Grantor shall determine that any thing, trade, business or use is undesirable or noxious, such determination shall be conclusive on all parties. The construction or maintenance of a spite or nuisance wall, hedge, fence or tree shall be prohibited on said property. If the Grantor shall determine that any wall, fence, hedge or tree falls within the latter category such determination shall be conclusive on all parties.”

Owners of said property will bring landscaping into compliance with Covenants, the View Preservation Amendment and City of Shoreline Development Code, chapters 20.50, 20.80 prior to starting remodel or new construction.  A warranty will be signed by the owner to this effect.  A prerequisite to Board approval is landscape compliance.  Exemptions: Properly documented and grandfathered trees.

Phelps said that the policy does not indicate how compliance would be judged.  If the Board were to make this determination, this would give the Board the role that the court and previous Boards wished to avoid, namely having the Board make legal decisions as to whether or not a given tree is in compliance with all of the rules governing. This would entail not just enforcing the view amendment, but also applying all of the legal exemptions available in each case.  This Board is not a judicial body, and should not be asked to function as such.  Phelps then moved to delete the proposed additions and substitute for them the following:

When a final decision has been made, whether through binding arbitration or court action, as to compliance with the view amendment in any particular case, that decision will be made part of the record when new construction or remodels are before the Board.  Until the decision has been complied with, no approval will be granted.

The motion did not receive a second.  Discussion followed.  Wagar said that he didn’t think compliance involved so much complexity.  Skeel pointed out that approval or denial must be given within 30 days of submission of plans.  Laskin said she liked Phelps’s idea because it has the virtue of keeping the Board out of the tree wars.   On the other hand, she likes Weinberg’s proposal because the Board should promote community.  Phelps responded to Skeel’s concern by pointing out that the Board can use the option to “deny without prejudice” until certain actions are taken, as it has done with remodels in the past.  In this case, it could require that a binding agreement or other legal decision regarding landscaping be presented when the plan comes before the Board again.  Fosmire said that the 30-day requirement is not a problem, and that the Board has dealt with contentious remodels in the past.  He favors Weinberg’s proposal.  Howard said that if a fence or hedge does not comply, we can work it out, and she prefers to avoid litigation.  Allen (via memo) believes the new policy is unfair because it does not apply to everyone, only to those seeking remodels.  It was suggested that we might find a combination of the two proposals.  Wagar said we’re picking only one covenant for enforcement, and he’d like to see the Board do more “jaw-boning”, more letter-writing to encourage compliance with all covenants.  Lowell said that we just received this on Saturday, and he’d like to table a decision to September.  He suggested that we get more e-mail going, more ideas. There are a lot of things we can do.  We should get involved in trees and views.  Howard said that if we table to September, the Board should consider other options for enforcement, such as making compliance a requirement for getting keys to the reserves, use of the Clubhouse, etc., and that there are other things the Board can consider beside remodels to encourage compliance.  Weinberg said that he would be here most of the summer and is uncomfortable with getting nothing done until September.   Laskin suggested that a subcommittee of Board members and committee members work with Weinberg to draft alternative proposals.

The following motion was adopted 7-0:

Board Action:  We table this issue to September while we work on alternative language.

There were further comments regarding grandfathered trees:  Laskin stated that the burden of proof for grandfathering trees had rested with the claimants, and that they should have a document from the Special Master.

Developing a questionnaire

Weinberg asked the Board to provide funds for professional help in developing an unbiased questionnaire to survey IA residents regarding views, and recommended Mary McGuire.  The following motion was approved by a vote of 6 yes, with 1 abstention.

Board Action:  The Board shall provide up to $525 for expert advice in developing a survey regarding Innis Arden residents’ preferences and experiences with regard to views, starting from the current draft questionnaire and comments and turn it into a questionnaire that is not biased.

View Information Packet (VIP)

The Board received copies of the proposed 12-page packet.  Solle reported that they have solicited input from various sources.  She asked the Board to provide the funds for printing and mailing the packet to all IA residents.

Wagar said that he is comfortable with it, and suggested including the phone numbers of arborists.  Laskin said she supports doing this, although she knows that others disagree with the history it provides.  She said they have done a good job, and that this is a way to get the issue out to the community.  Phelps said that the document is completely biased in favor of the view amendment and those seeking the most Draconian enforcement of it.  To cite just one blatant misstatement, we find this:  “The View Preservation Amendment neither included nor excluded the Reserves”.    The view amendment does exclude the Reserves because it applies only to “residential lots”, and the reserves are by the covenants explicitly not residential lots.   To this day many who signed the amendment contend that they were lied to about how it would apply, especially as to “neighbor”.  They were assured that “neighbor” meant adjoining property or across the street, not someone who lives a quarter of a mile away.  Had they known the truth, they say they would not have signed.  This information is not in the packet.  From the start, many who wanted trees cut have been unwilling to talk with those who own the trees to find a way to let both parties have some of what they want - that’s called compromise.  All of the financial burden is on the tree owner, who also loses property rights.  The view amendment should be changed to make it more fair and balanced between the interests of view-seekers and tree-owners, with a goal of establishing better relations among all Innis Arden residents, something that will never happen under the provisions of the present view amendment.  Howard said that this group is not trying to bully or coerce anyone.  She’d like to see us work together and has said repeatedly that we have to be fair.  We took this to people - Larry Bliss and Nancy Rust offered helpful comments.  It’s a start.  This committee is open.  Anybody could have come.  She supports this; it’s been a lot of hard work.  There may be other opinions.  We need to find common ground, and she is more than happy to listen to other people’s views.  Fosmire said he supports this packet and wants to send it to all.  Lowell said that it’s a good document, that the people opposed are emotional, and the view amendment is in place and we can’t go over what’s already been done.  Wagar agreed.  Phelps said that the Vegetation Management Plan was also in place but has been ignored and added that she assumed the Board would also finance the printing and mailing of a packet of opposing information and opinions.  The following motion by Skeel was approved, 6-1:

Board Action:  The Board will send the View Information Packet out as a Board document, paying for the postage and printing.

ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE  June Howard reported for Pam Smit.  • The date of the Salmon Barbecue has been changed to Wednesday, September 12. • TGIF picnics are still going, Friday evenings, starting at 6:30 p.m.. •  Work parties are needed for help in spreading chips, August 10 - please call Tracy & Knut Landboe, 542-1807 [PLEASE NOTE: the phone number in the 2001 Directory is incorrect.] • The Committee is looking for new members - please call Chris Kocher, 533-1223. •  If you are interested in working on an Innis Arden event for the Shoreline August parade, please call Judy Allen, 542-3219. • On Monday, August 6, 7:30 p.m., tennis awards will be presented in the Clubhouse.  •  The next meeting of the Committee will be held on July 23 at the home of Chris Kocher, 17201 15th NW, 533-1223.

CLUBHOUSE  A resident asked to have a reduced fee to rent the Clubhouse for a large chess tournament for adults. It was felt that the regular community rates were appropriate for this event.

GROUNDS  Jim Skeel said that there was nothing new to report. Laskin suggested that there are two trees that have  branches hanging over the track and they could use trimming to keep them out of the faces of those using the track.

RESERVES  Al Wagar reminded us that written comments on the Grouse proposal are due by 5:00 p.m. July 12 at the City of Shoreline.  He reported that we have a set of steps down to the north side of the concrete bridge (between 17th Avenue and 17th Place), the result of Eagle Scout projects by Aaron and Brent Woodham.  Another Eagle Scout project, by James Wiswell, will provide a third bridge in Eagle Reserve, making it suitable for walking at all times of the year.

FISH IN BOEING CREEK  Ed Barnes reports that several thousand small coho fry were added to Boeing Creek in the Reserve, as allowed by permit.   They will live in the stream until next year, when they will head out to northern Vancouver Island for two years before returning to Boeing Creek.  Barnes welcomes your questions, comments, suggestions.  He can be reached at 542-5242.

TREASURER  June Howard reported that we have collected $86,420 in dues, with 433 households out of 541 paid (although two paid at the old rate of $110 instead of the current $200).  She thanked Wayne Cottingham for providing the data base that makes her task much easier.  She also thanked Jim Skeel for stuffing, labeling, and mailing the second notice.  We’re doing pretty well in finances, with $106,000 in savings. There are still some issues - people want to know where the money goes.  Our current set-up requires our monthly statements to be restricted to the Board because to hand them out would put our CPA at risk - this would be true for any CPA doing this work.  What we probably have to move to is a property management company, and have an annual audit.  There are people in the business of helping communities like ours determine how much cash reserve they need to maintain their assets.  It would cost about $2000 for the audit for the first year, which would include the set-up, and $1500 annually thereafter.  She hopes to have a firm proposal in the fall.  Howard inquired if the addresses are to be published of those who have not paid dues - about 108 have not.  Skeel moved and Wagar seconded the following motion, which was ruled to be an illegal motion under our by-laws:  Do not publish the delinquent addresses in the Bulletin.  Laskin read the relevant by-law that requires publication.  Phelps pointed out that while not required, by-laws have usually waited for amendment until the annual meeting, and Lowell noted that the alternative is to publish the intended amendment in the Bulletin in advance of its consideration by the Board.  Howard offered an apology to anyone who received more than one dues reminder - there inadvertently may have been some duplicates.

BUILDING & REMODELS  Kate Laskin reported for Bob Allen from his written memo.

• Diorio, 17001 15th NW.    Expanding to the rear; creating a front entry foyer; replacing, relocating and expanding an existing deck; replacing current roof, adding a maximum of 8 inches to the height of the ridge.  The plans have been submitted, the project is staked, and all the neighbors have signed off in support of the project.  The Board adopted the following motion 8-0 (including proxy from Allen).

Board Action:  We approve the Diorio remodel as planned and staked.

• Scudder, 17764 NW 185.   Change in previously approved plans.  The change is from a continuous North-South ridge to create  an East-West hip rising 1’4” higher than the original, existing roof.  Plans have been submitted and the project is staked.  The change creates minimal to no impact.  Scudder’s trees are the focus of objections.  The Board adopted the following motion 8-0 (including proxy from Allen):

Board Action:  We approve the changes to the Scudder remodel as planned and staked.

Scudder stated that his cherry tree will be pruned after the crop ripens, and that he has done everything he said he would.  Allen’s report says that there have been suggestions in past e-mails on the subject to write a letter from the Board to the Scudders informing them they need to maintain their trees in compliance with the View Covenant, and he would be in support of this.

• Pagan, 1483 NW 185.     This is for a ground level deck extension and an arbor.  Allen’s report states that he would prefer that such minor changes not come to the Board if the immediate neighbors are consulted and are in agreement.  He reports that he has a copy of a letter from Floyd and Agnes Seymour to the IA Board requesting that Board permission be denied until the Pagans bring their trees into conformity with the Tree Height Amendment.  Attached to the letter is a letter the Seymours sent to the Pagans dated Oct. 5, 2000 regarding the matter.  Allen says that he has not yet looked into this, but on the surface it seems to add complications to what ought to be a straightforward approval.  He states that the Seymours live a fairly good distance away from the Pagans and there is a reserve between the two properties and another reserve beyond.  The Seymours may have a legitimate claim under the View Amendment, but Allen would have a hard time rejecting what is in essence a weekend (or two) project on the basis of some distant neighbor’s potential tree issue.  The deck extension is going to be a brick or stone patio laid on the ground.  The only portion of the remodel that the Board has to deal with is the arbor, a nine-foot tall cedar tone wood structure over the patio.  Both adjacent neighbors have signed off indicating their support.  Allen spoke with Seymour who referred him to Michael Rasch, his attorney and neighbor, as the author of the June 23rd letter to the Innis Arden Club requesting that the Board deny the remodel, pending conformance with the View Covenant.  Mr. Rasch indicated to Allen that he could identify the offending trees which block the Seymours’ view.  Absent that, Allen would move to approve the Pagans proposal as drawn.  If Mr. Rasch is able to cite the offending trees (2 or 3 was his indication), Allen supposes a site visit from the Seymours and the Pagans would be in order.  Then we are truly adjudicating on the View Covenant, not the remodel, and Allen is out of it. As far as the arbor goes, he moves to approve it.   The Board adopted the following motion, 8-0 (including proxy from Allen):

Board Action:  We approve the Pagan remodel as planned.

Lisa Pagan commented that the Seymours had never spoken to her about the trees.  She understands how deeply frustrating the view issue is and would be happy to work with the Seymours on this if they can identify the trees at issue.  Rasch said that would be fine with them.

• Paradise/Wayrynen, 17707 14th NW.  (The south side of Clocksin.)  They have staked and given Allen a sketch of a maximum envelope they would like to build, provided a geotech survey gives them the leeway to build to the south (away from Clocksin) toward the ravine (the geotech survey may require them to scale back their plan).  The maximum envelope would easily satisfy the setback requirements.  Allen has asked that they get the requisite sign-offs on Addendum B.   The three surrounding neighbors have all signed off in support of the plan.  However, on a second sketch there is a small (4 foot) extension of the roof to the north and footprint (running east to west) to square off what seems to be the dining room (see plans #1 and #2).    The Board adopted the following motion by a vote of 8-0 (including proxy from Allen):

Board Action:  We approve the Paradise/Wayrynen remodel proposal subject to complete plans that provide for the addition to have a footprint and elevation equal to or less than the drawings and staking approved by the neighbors as of today’s date.

• Kuechle, 17727 14th NW.  This refers to changes made after the Board approved the remodel plans.  The Board adopted the following motion by a vote of 8-0 (including proxy from Allen):

Board Action:  We formally ratify the changes to the Kuechle remodel the Board reviewed on June 19.

FRIENDS OF INNIS ARDEN TREES (FIAT)  Phelps announced the formation of a new interest group, starting with about 18 families, and she read their mission statement:

"Trees, especially tall, long-living trees have intrinsic value and contribute aesthetically, environmentally, and ecologically to our community.  FIAT's mission is to protect these trees for the unique role they play in the habitat of our forested reserves and to preserve them so that they may be enjoyed by present and future generations."

Phelps said that all Innis Arden residents who share this mission are invited to participate.  She is currently serving as the contact person, and can be reached by phone at 546-5495 or by e-mail at ephelps@cmc.net.

The meeting adjourned at 11:00 p.m.

Elaine Phelps, Secretary

To All  Members of Innis Arden:

The Board wishes to thank all residents who have chosen to be an active member of Innis Arden.  Your support of our community is truly appreciated

According to Section 3 of the Innis Arden bylaws, any member of Innis Arden may choose active or inactive status.  “Active status implies payment of all dues and assessments within six months of billing date.  A list of all inactive or non-paying members shall be published six months after the billing date of all dues and assessments.  Inactive members forfeit the right of all privileges associated with the Club, but remain bound by all the By-Laws and restrictions affecting the Club.  Inactive members may reclassify to active status at any time simply by paying the current years’ dues.“

 This year the board sent out a second notice and has been very pleased with the response.  As of this date, July 17, 2001, we have 435 active members and 103 inactive members. Please be assured that every effort has been made to identify the active and inactive members.  If your address is listed in error, I hope you will be gentle with the treasurer when you call her to tell her an error has been made as she has spent considerable time making sure the list is accurate.  Please call June Howard, Treasurer at 542-8177 with any questions.
