Correspondence:  Secretary, Gayle Bryner, briefly discussed:

A) WIT is currently working on a “WIT Club website re-launch.” It was requested that we submit a group picture of our club (used the group picture from our Chardonnay Travelers website home page – but we hope to submit a new picture soon), a brief description about our group’s location and activities, and a current ‘Calendar of Events’

Vice President’s Report (Future Outings):  *Vice President, Art Schipper, was not present due to health issues.    President, Fred Bryner, reported:

Remember that Art has volunteered to be VP for only 2021.  Currently, Art & Fred are trying to work together on upcoming outings – Art, makes the initial contact & Fred, does paperwork & reservations.  Please let Art & Fred know if there is any outing that you would be interested in hosting.  Also, if you have any suggestions for locations…please let them know ASAP!  It continues to be a challenge to get RV Parks that are back working full-scale.  Please be patient.  They are doing their best!      

Next Outing Wagon Master’s Report: The next outing is scheduled at Bodega Bay RV, Bodega Bay on June 24-27.  The Hosts are Bob & Gloria Anderson and Milt & Carol Wallace.  It still looks as if we will NOT have use of the clubhouse there due to Covid-19 issues.  So, plan for cooler weather, wind and fog.  It is a beautiful area but very close to the ocean!  Gloria Anderson asked that you plan to bring your own tables for eating and any activities that may occur.  They are possibly planning dinner out Friday night at Dinucci’s Italian Restaurant in Valley Ford.  Look for more information to come soon.
 

Old Business:  Our Club has volunteered to make a dinner at the CalWIT outing in Bakersfield, Oct 6-10.  We will request either a Thurs or Fri dinner.  We plan to prepare Mama Jo’s Sloppy Joe Sandwiches, salad, & brownies.  Would anyone be willing to take on the leadership of this event?  More to come closer to the event.

Sunshine:  Leora Matranga has been busy sending out e-cards to our membership for birthdays, anniversaries, get well notes, etc.  She is doing a great job!  Thanks, Leora.

Birthdays & Anniversaries:

Any Other Business?  There was discussion regarding some things that may be changing at the WIT level such as bylaws being taken off of the website (to be replaced later?), dropping certificates of insurance, clubs liability issues, etc.  There were other organizations mentioned such as FMCA and what benefits there might be available.  It was also mentioned that CalWIT will be requiring new officers for next year (2022).  Things to consider in the future?
