SAGE members,

Just a reminder that the monthly club meeting will be held this Thursday, April 13th at 7:30 at Hometown Hobbies located in the Prairie Hills Mall (across from the movie theater).

Also there are a few past members that have not paid their dues for 2006 and will need to settle up with one of the club officers ASAP. Also anyone who has received their new AMA card please bring that to the meeting as well so that we can have a copy on file for our charter commitment.

The main topics of discussion for this meeting will be our annual field maintenance (see agenda below). We will discuss possible changes to the layout to better accommodate parking especially addressing larger vehicles (i.e. campers) at our events and as our events grow.

Please plan on attending!
