GUESTS: No guests other than honorary member Colby Davis.

FINES: Jeff Brewer was flying solo again as our Sergeant. Andrew Parr paid his usual Presidential tax. Dane Powers and Carol Carr were fined for being late. Harley Macklin was coerced into paying a fine because Jeff said, confessions are good for the soul although he didnt confess to any. Duke Wiggins paid a $1 for another upside-down T-Shirt that he purchased back from the club at a significant discount. Duke said that he was using it in his dogs bed and his dog doesnt give a damn that it was upside down. Very funny!! Ward Davis and Colby paid to announce again that Reins of Hope will hold a fundraiser golf tournament in Hesston on June 12.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Darren Wicks announced that with a recent post order the t-shirt total that was sold during the NJCAA Basketball Tournament was slightly higher than last year at 753. The financial accounting has not been completed.

Randall Haltom confirmed that our 35th anniversary club social will be held April 30th on the east side of the encampment building on the fairgrounds to include all past and present members. Continue to think of names of former members that can be invited to attend.

As a reminder Duke Wiggins has tickets for the National Big Hat Club who is holding a $20 per ticket raffle that will have 4 prizes to be awarded at the National Convention this fall. The prizes are a shotgun, a rifle with scope, a hand gun and $2,500 in cash
