Flora L called the meeting to order at 4:54pm
Old business: Flora asked if there were any comments about the last camp out at Camp Comfort in June. Leanne & Neal S were the only ones present that had attended. They commented that it was a good trip. They enjoyed the Music Festival and a walking tour of the library, both in Ojai.
New business: Tom & Karen H brought up the fact that we are not wearing name tags as a group. They had theirs on but most of the rest attending have never received a name tag. Carol M will look into.
Flora stated that we should also display the Weakenders flags or sings on our rigs, and our group banner identifying the group. Some of the attendees stated they have not received a Weakenders flag or sign to display. Flora also stated that the roster needs updating.
Flora asked if everyone had a copy of the group's Bylaws, Wagon Master Guidelines & Duties, and Emergency Departure System. No one had the Emergency Departure System so Flora reviewed briefly for our information.
Carol brought up camping in the Pismo area next year. There was some conversation about how Pismo Sands was a nicer camp ground than Pacific Dunes but the group is not welcome there. Carol thought that maybe if we changed to another month, possibly October, we may be allowed in then, but she really doesn't want to deal with the office staff at Pismo Sands any longer. We all supported her in that decision. Carol mentioned that she will look into the possibility of camping at Pismo Village. Stan Mc provided Carol with a brochure on a campground he & Una Mc have stayed at in Morro Bay. It's not the state park and has full hook ups. Carol will look into the possibility of camping there too. After Carol has the information on both campgrounds she will poll the group for a decision on location for August 2019.
Carol advised us:
September camp out is Yucaipia. Tom & Karen H are Wagon Masters. Currently, there are only 4 rigs going after recent cancellations. The camp out is still a go with just the 4.
October is Golden Shores. Les & Celia H are Wagon Masters.
November is Flying Flags. Jim & Jan B are Wagon Masters.
January 2019 is Canyon RV in Anaheim. There is no Wagon Master at this time.
Carol requested payment for all trips we plan on attending up through January 2019, if your payment hasn't already been sent to her.
February 2019 is Ventura Ranch KOA. There is no Wagon Master at this time. Carol advised that the cost for the weekend there is $157, more than any other place we stay. She asked if we wanted to continue attending there after February 2019. Rex L mentioned Rancho Jurupa in Riverside near the Mission Inn as a future possibility. They have a community room. Rex will look into the details of camping there and let Carol know. Carol will then poll the group for a decision on location for February 2020.
March is Bakersfield. There is no Wagon Master at this time.
April is Pechanga. Wagon Masters are Sue & Dal J and Vicki & George S. You must make your own reservations for this trip.
May is Paso Robles. Rex & Flora L are Wagon Masters.
June is Camp Comfort. There is no Wagon Master at this time.
Carol stated that the bank account is in good shape and all is okay.
