    Boat Committee
     Boat Slip Waiting List
     Mark McDonald gave an update on the status of annual dues payment for
    an individual that appeared to be unpaid when in fact he reached out to
    them and was able to confirm that timely payment was sent and received.
    Julie will ensure the spreadsheet reflects this.
     Chris and Kelsey Peterson attended and raised an issue they had regarding
    their Boat Slip Wait List position when the new Boat Rules were passed

and they were unaware they had to pay the $100. to be on the List. Due to
their non-payment, they lost their position. Once they were aware, and
paid, they were placed on the bottom of the List. The Board discussed their
issue and agreed to research what position they were in at the time this
occurred and restore it. Heather will work on this and bring the changes
back.

 Many thanks to Mary Dykes for all her work in staining the swing set and cleaning
up the overgrowth on the Gull Lake beach. She inquired whether the dock benches
required similar maintenance; Mary Jo will follow-up with Tom.
