wiring. There is no immediate requirement so he is looking at it as an item
for next year.

won’t know until the Spring about the need for dredging. Trees that fall in
the river in the Fall need to be removed then.

Master next year. Paul Buttinger made some observations about harbour entry.
Don Voll suggested the club include recommendations for horns when entering
the channel from the lake.
6) New Business
A member suggested the club have more visible “private” signs on the outside
edge of the gates.
Larry Rice expressed a concern about finding the gate lock closed but the
gate open. He felt this should have an impact on a member’s membership.
Don Voll suggested the club seek an engineer’s report to deepen the channel
so members do not need to enter on plane.
A member noted that with the expensive new locks they should be welded on to
prevent loss of the locks.
