COMMITTEE REPORTS:
Ted Knapp gave a report on the upcoming Tigers on the Columbia event. The host hotel is the Coast Hotel in Wenatchee at $144 per night. We have use of a private parking lot Thursday – Sunday that will allow access only to attendees. Registration will be in the Convention Center on Friday and at the event grounds at Rocky Reach Dam on Saturday. A cruise on Friday will be led by a local member ending at the Hot Rod Cafe in Monitor, WA. Local clubs gather there on Friday nights and can see as many as 100 cars. There is a large field for parking at the cafe. A discussion was held regarding the meal choice at the Saturday banquet and a vote determined that we would offer fish, chicken and pork since the cost of the steak was felt to be too high. Sunday has two choices of activities, either a cruise on Lake Chelan or a trip to Leavenworth. Both of these can be done using the free public transportation. Wally Santella reported that the t-shirt design would be similar to last year’s, with a logo on the front and special marking mentioning Wenatchee. A discussion regarding award types was held, with examples shown of three types, and it was decided by a vote to use plaques printed in color using sublimation.
