January 2006
TCC Officers and Members of the Land Management Committee,
I am sending this out for your review, comments, and the subsequent inclusion
by the Secretary in his heads up message for the January Activity Weekend and
Winter Meeting. The Kudos for this announcement message are derived from my
notes and recollections made during my visits to the landsite. Since
you may have been at the Landsite at times when I was not present to make notes,
please add items not covered herein. The purpose of the Other
Landsite Maintenance, Repairs, Replacements, and Minor Improvements segment
is to remind members about the many small things, that they might not otherwise
have occasion to think about, that are accomplished on their behalf just to
keep the Landsite usable for them and their clubs.
Feel free to
add your own lists. Please directly e-mail me at nbmurdoch@earthlink.net any
additions, corrections, or changes that may have escaped my attention, including
any of my club/independent affiliation annotations missing or in error.

SUGGESTED TASKS FOR THE JANUARY ACTIVITY
WEEKEND:
- The activities of the January Activity Weekend are focused on
the important elections and matters before the Winter Business Meeting
- A volunteer with an open bed pickup truck is needed to
take bagged recycled aluminum cans to the recycling center in Rockdale.
- The
unseasonably warm fall season extended the seasonal leaf fall this year
and leaves continue to accumulate in the activity areas of the Landsite that
will need to be raked up and used for mulch for flower beds or to fill
in behind rock retaining walls.
As always,
looking forward to seeing everyone.
