Monday, May 2, 2005


The meeting was called to order at 7:00 PM at Dimitri's Restaurant by President, Jack Lynett. In attendance were John Vorhies, Treasurer; Marilyn Demaline, Secretary; Board Members, Bill Hunter, Walt Stashkiw, Don Emery, Les Demaline, Cliff Wolfe, Bud Long, Larry Prebis, Ray McFarland, Gil Maringer, Eric West, John Herwick, and members Kathy Stashkiw, Julie West, Lucy Hunter, Nancy Herwick, Rose McFarland, Greg Glick, Cheryl Maringer, Mary Emery and Sy Lynett. It was moved and seconded to accept the minutes of the April 5, 2005 meeting as corrected. The following words were omitted from the final sentence of the minutes that were posted on the web site. The words omitted were "---lunch. Next meeting of the NCO Board will be at Dimitri's Restaurant on Monday, May 2, 2005 at 6:30 PM."

John Vorhies announced that the treasury balance was $9083.00. He noted that our current membership remains at 118.

Jack Lynett announced that the June 4th Rendezvouz at the Turkey Foot Island Club will be catered this year in celebration of our 10th anniversary as a chapter of the Antique and Classic Boat Society. There will be no charge to NCO members. Committee of Walt Stashkiw and Eric West will meet with the caterer to finalize a menu. It was moved and seconded by Bill Hunter and Larry Prebis to allow the committee to spend up to $15.00 per person for the food. A birthday cake will be provided. This will be a BYOB event for those members who wish to have an alcoholic drink. Members may bring their boat and participate in the annual Poker Run for the $50.00 prize that will be awarded to the winning boat. The event will start at 11:00 AM.

Les Demaline has made the final arrangements for 20 docks for the Vermilion Show which should accommodate up to 30 boats. The club will have to pay $400.00 for the use of the docks this year. This expense will be paid for from the income for the show. Les projects the income for the show to be $3500.00 with expenses coming in at $2000.00.
Ray and Rose McFarland, Jack Lynett and Bill Hunter made 48 sail boat kits for the Kid's Sail Boat Contest.

Walt Stashkiw is working with the Manager of The Harbor Club for the July 2 Portage Lakes Show and expects this will be a good show once again. Since the Portage Lakes Historical Society no longer gives shirts to the boat show participants, it was suggested that we might be able to purchase T-shirts for our NCO shows that would have boat pictures on the front and the dates and locations of our 2005 Shows on the back. Walt will look into costs and time to produce the shirts and working with Gil Maringer and Les Demaline a decision will be made on whether to go ahead with this project in order to have the shirts available for sale at the 3 summer shows.

Gil Maringer again announced that the Lake Chautauqua show on July 16 will be held on Saturday only. The free pig roast will be Saturday evening at the marina so he plans to do the show awards late afternoon prior to the meal. Boats may remain in the water on Sunday, however.

The applications for all three summer shows will be in the mail shortly. They will be mailed individually by the Show Chairman so be on the look out for them.

Greg Glick said that several NCO members plan on attending the new show at Lake Wawasee in Indiana. A caravan is planned so interested members need to contact Greg for details.

The Summer Quarterly Meeting of the ACBS will be held during the Toronto Show at Gravenhurst, Ontario on July 7, 8, and 9.

Jack told about the Symposium recently held at Newport News, VA. that he attended along with Sy and Les and Marilyn Demaline. All agreed it was a great event.

New business included a request from member Bill Gilroy to put the June Marietta Boat Show in our newsletter. Because of time, it will be posted on our web site instead.

A brief discussion was held about NCO possibly hosting an ACBS Annual Meeting in 2007. Members will make some inquiries around the Sandusky area about availability of docks, lodging, restaurants and attractions that would be necessary for such an event. This would be a huge undertaking for our club and we will discuss it further at the Rendezvouz to determine if it would be feasible for our club to undertake such a project. The 2005 Annual Meeting will be in the Lake of the Ozarks and the 2006 Meeting will be at Lake Tahoe.

If necessary, a short business meeting may be held at the Rendezvouz. The next scheduled Board Meeting will be Monday, September 12 at 6:30 PM at Dimitri's. Meeting adjourned at 9:10 PM.

Respectfully submitted,

Marilyn Demaline, Secretary
