Trustees Report –

1. George Lawrence. Trustees and associates are still pursuing estimates on roof repairs. Negotiations with Carlisle Construction Materials might include some donated materials worth up to $18,000. There is a standing bid for $40K that does not include repairs to roof decking, insulation, or ceiling suspension system. These additional `possible requirements could cost another $25K-$40K. Negotiations continue.
2. Bob Berrettini. Work Day needs to be scheduled when the weather gets cooler to clean out bullet trap and to repair conveyor belts.

Old Business –

1. CGC roof repair update from Trustees Report, ref para 1 above. ACTION ITEM: Trustees and associates.
2. The vote for CGC Membership Annual Dues to include a $10 discount for CGC members who are 65 or older before 1 November 2023 was taken up from the table in compliance with CGC By-Laws. Because members who made and seconded the motion were absent, there was no one in the Body who would speak in favor of the motion. Because CGC membership data does not include any method to verify member birthdates, this otherwise-noble motion was lost.
3. Scheduling and announcing the CGC work day to clean the range bullet trap and to repair the range conveyor belts, ref para 2 above, remains an open item. ACTION ITEM: Trustees and Range Management.
4. Tom McKay. Tom asks for a copy of the CGC budget. ACTION ITEM: CGC Treasurer.
