Greeting shipmates not a lot new to report. Our membership continues to shrink with the passing of far too many of our shipmates. We stand at 356 members, very few are active members. We remain financially viable with $33,734.79 in CDs and $4,582.59 in the check book.
With all the turmoil in the world today let us pray that by Christmas things will be a little calmer.
It is a little early, but I would like to wish you all a
VERY MARY CHRISTMAS
&
HAPPY SAFE NEW YEAR

Well, we made it through another year, and we are still standing tall. At the beginning of FY 2023 we have 384
members. Unfortunately, we have lost track of 61 Life Members. They have either moved and did not update
their new address, or they are deceased.
On our web site is a listing of these missing members. I would like your
help in finding these members. Please
look at this listing and notify me if you know their location. This action
would be very helpful in cleaning up our files.
Financially we have $4,993.14 in our check book
and $33,734.79 in CDs.
Check book

General
fund $1,519.37

Ahoy shipmates!
It is time for the first Aerograph of this calendar year and a report
from my desk. For the first time the
news is not good. Currently, we have 280
Life Members, 16 dues paying members.
All but one is paid up to the end of this year or longer.
There were insufficient funds in the checking
account to cover upcoming expenses.
Therefore, it was necessary to tap the CDs for the first time to cover
expenses. Last year’s expenses totaled
$5,356.72. Anticipating expenses for
2023 to be about $8,500.00 or more.
Currently, our operating funds equal $3,217.41, giving us a short fall
of $5,282.59 or there abouts, for the year.
Current CD funds total $33,723.46.
Subtracting our short fall from the CD fund will leave us with
$28,440.87 at the close of 2023. If our
expenses average $8,000.00 a year, we have about 3.5 years of funds
remaining.
Our three largest expenses
are travel expenses to and from reunions for the secretary/treasurer and
editor, printing and mailing of the Aerograph.
I believe something must change if we are to make it more than three
years. Let us put on our thinking caps
and collectively come up with a solution.
