Old Business:
Tri-Chapter Meeting – S.Ford reported that arrangements have been made with St.

continue saving those tin tabs for the yearly competition in support of the Ronald
McDonald House and bring them to the Tri-Chapter Meeting.
Conference – S.Ford reported that Ms. Evers was not able to review the
accommodations in Punta Gorda for 2011 Education Conference this past month.
Canoe trip – scheduled for 25 April 2009. This year will be purely a social event. Place
opens at &;30 and we want to be on the first bus so there is plenty of time for the free
bar-b-q picnic to follow. Cost is $40 per canoe (comfy seats $5 extra, each).
Chapter Website – D.Miller reported that website is looking good. D.Hayner said he is
looking for material to post (announcements, articles, etc.) to keep it fresh. Discussion
of such followed, considering posting County Benchmark information (see new
business).

None this month
New Business:
S.Ford (newly appointed Charlotte County Survey) reported that he is working on a data
base of county benchmarks in excel format; looking to incorporate with NGS
benchmarks and new bench loops as part of counties requirement to provide such to
keep FEMA Insurance rating.
