Misc;
- A quick reminder: while we cannot explicitly forbid flying at Funston, we're
taking the same position as the national org, that you really don't want to
be at an ER at the moment. And, if you are injured at Funston, remember that
emergency services will have a hard time getting to you with the gates closed. - Danny's girlfriend's parents own a property w/ cell towers, bathrooms, and
some pilot has been flying there for quite some time. He's going to check it
out. (This is about as much as he knows about it - he's not even sure if the
current pilot is a hang or para.)
Treasurer/GGNRA Liason Report (Steve Rodrigues)
- No news from the park on the reopening.
- Regarding the sandbag burm and the request to replace it with asphault: GGNRA
are in the process of replacing the entire lot, so we're working with them in
the hopes of the new lot eliminating the issue. - Some discussion about being (illegitimately) ticketed at Funston.
- $20,399.32, minus $12k roofing = $8,399.32
- There was a discussion about taking Venmo/PayPal for their dues. This expanded
to a discussion about making the form and payment entirely electronic. There
was a short conversation about eliminating stickers, but a few spoke up that
it's nice to be able to ID an authorized pilot by just looking at their
helmet.
- Steve will look into Venmo's options for the club - what it'll cost in
xaction fees, etc., and report next month.
