Net Income $1,172; Cash in bank $49,662 for operations and $19,228 for
Broadmoor Hangar Renovation.
Curator Update (Whalen)
Problems
with the base wi-fi system have necessitated shutting down the on-line visitor
requests temporarily.
Foreign
visitor requests now require 48 hours notice (to ck passports) vs the 24 hours
notice for US civilians.
The recent hail storm resulted in
damage to all our aircraft. Eight aircraft
are on our priority list for repair.
Total aircraft damage is estimated at nearly $400,000. There was some window damage and flooding in buildings.
Thanks to docents who showed up to help the clean up.
Flooding in the terminal basement
will require moving the Museum Store stock over to the Broadmoor Hangar on a
permanent basis.
Painting of the meeting room in the
Broadmoor Hangar will start soon.
New
Long commented that as many as 45 of
the tiles around the museum entrance were damaged by the hail storm and need to
be replaced. Info yet to come.
Please do not re-arrange items in
the Museum Store. Replenishment of stock, however, is okay.
Meeting
adjourned at 1000 hours.
Next
meeting: 26 September at 0900 hrs.
Respectfully submitted,
Jim Henderson,
Secretary.
