<p>&#8211; President Steve read an email sent to the Club Treasurer that appeared to be asking the Treasurer to send money to a bogus account for a bogus reason. This email did not come from President Steve and was definitely phishing. Club members are reminded to be aware of such scams, to report them to competent authority, and to take personal measures to identify yourself in official correspondence with Club officers. One example is a practice of including a special character in the body or signature block of your official email correspondence. <strong>President Steve will ask the Corresponding Secretary to send out another reminder about email security to help reduce impact of phishing scammers.</strong> <strong>Action for Corresponding Secretary.</strong></p>
<p>&#8211; Trustee George Lawrence. George recommended the Club consider purchasing a couple of tower fans to circulate hot air toward the exhaust fans on the range. The issue was discussed and will be decided after consultation with CGC Range Management.</p>

<p>&#8211; President Steve will ask the Corresponding Secretary to send another email announcement regarding CGC support for the NRA ILA. <strong>Members who donate to the NRA ILA should notify the CGC Treasurer with the date and amount of their donation to the NRA ILA.

<p>Respectfully submitted,</p>

<p><strong>4-H Sharpshooters</strong>&#8211; A motion was made and approved to refer to this program as the <u>Youth Shooting Program.</u>  The 4-H Sharpshooters will resume sometime in 2021.  Until then, the youth will meet at the CGC on Thursday evenings to continue practicing their shooting skills while respecting social distancing.</p>

<p><strong>WPPL Pistol Team- </strong>The team will start in September with Matches #2-12 shooting at our home club.  Scores will be sent in electronically for the approximately 15 shooters.  Every other lane on the range will be used during the matches and cloth barriers will be hung between the lanes to respect social distancing.</p>
<p><strong>Technology and Security Committee- </strong>At the current time, everything is working fine.</p>
<p><strong>Trustees Report</strong>&#8211; The annual Club Work Day date will be announced at the September Club meeting.</p>
