In our last meeting we had voted to have quarterly meetings. That means it's time to have one in June. Please watch your emails for time and location. Tentatively we will have a meeting on Thursday June 21, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. at the Public Works Building
at 4700 Elmore.


We had a successful ride to Cordova this past weekend of June 8, 9,10. Only 4 members made the trip. We had to divert to Valdez on Friday due to high winds and seas coming from the east out past Naked Island. While in Valdez we contacted another pwc rider that has been in contact with the club. He and a friend rode their pwcs to Cordova on Saturday to go surfing out in the gulf. We had hooked up with them in Cordova. Haven't heard how that trip went yet for them.

Challenge AK in Wasilla is June 30, 2012 one day only Saturday. We need volunteers, so please call or email me asap.

Thanks for everyone who had petitions signed we got around 700 signatures. More on this later.

We'll be planning a fishing & camping trip out of Seward sometime in August. Let me know if you want to join us. Dates to be announced later.


THANK YOU, GINA
