OLD BUSINESSI. Family Reunion Planning
Tim had found the parts of a quilt that Grandma had started but not assembled. Tim had it put together by a friend of his in Seeley Lake. Tim suggested that the quilt be raffled off and the funds from the raffle go to support the next family reunion. Fred suggested the priced per ticket as $5. That was agreed upon by the Board. Tim will send photos to Fred to post on the Facebook reunion event page and the Blogspot. Mary will get the tickets figured out. The raffle would be a “must be present to win” affair.

The number of expected attendees comes out to be about 50 to 55. Estimates by family group are: Henry (12), Gerry (10), Mary (10), Joe/Kiley (6), Fred (2), and Tim (4). There may be others too, from Kansas (maybe as many as 5), and maybe six other friends.

There appear to be sufficient beds in the new cabin (Fred and Cindy, Madonna?, others. . .), the old cabin (Gerry and Sheri, and others. . . ), the bunk house, and Tim’s house (Henry). Hank may be bringing a trailer for his family. Others are planning on camping.

There may not be enough pillows at the ranch, but it we need more, Mary has a source where we can buy more for a dollar apiece.

Fred and Cindy will arrive in Missoula on July 16th. Mary offered to come pick them up. Gerry said the Dodge truck would be at the Ranch.

It sounds like there will be people arriving as early as Thursday, but many will trickle in or be coming and going throughout the weekend.

Charley had the number for the porta potties.

The dumpster at the ranch needs to get emptied. It was relayed that Holley offered to pay for having that done.

Tim is ready to order food - he will do so once people email their menus to him.

Charley mentioned that he’d like to buy the horse trailer the ranch has. Tim had shown it to a prospective buyer, who did not buy it.
