1. Appointed Lynn Conley to the board as a trustee.
2. Elected new officers: Mike Apgar, President; Hank Apgar, Vice President; Dave Rich, Treasurer, Lynn Conley, Recording Secretary, Debbie Apgar, Corresponding Secretary.
3. Agreed to hold the annual reunion at the Stanton Grange on October 6, 2018 ($10 registration fee, $5.00 for the meal. Total =$15 including dinner)

5. Committed to notifying members by e-mail.
6. Agreed to publish a newsletter, with Hank as editor (deadline for items in this issue will be July 30).
7. Removed George Apgar from the board as a trustee.

Thankfully, Judy Beck will continue as Historian and Mary Carpenter will continue as Webmaster, although neither wishes to be a Trustee at this time. Lisa Berman will remain on the Board as PR Director. Lisa Berman wanted to participate however there was a communication mix-up.
