The meeting was called to order at 8:00pm – time was given for a quorum to show up - at the home of Craig & Julie Kasa – 7252 Ninth Street SE. There were 11 people in attendance representing 7 households – not a quorum.

The August minutes were accepted as written.

It was reported that the picnic was “good fun” and that the kid’s games were great. Kasa’s house may become the permanent picnic spot. Julie K. said that it is a great set-up, even though it is a lot of work.

Vicky Rydberg presented the treasurer’s report, which was accepted. The balance of the checking and savings accounts as of September 9, 2005, was $475.05 and $442.44, respectively.

Sharyl Miller resigned from the Hospitality Committee and Polly (and Steve) Willhite volunteered to take it over for the remainder of this year and to continue in 2006. Sue Brallier and Angela Miller volunteered to help Polly W. if necessary.

Angela Miller passed around the 2005 Lake Association Directory sample and said that she would distribute it later in the week. Mike Rydberg said that it looked good and to be sure to hand it out with the “Welcome Baskets”.

Thanks were given to Mike R. for doing all of the algae treatments basically solo. He completed four applications this year.

Craig and Julie K. said that they will coordinate the DNR permit and resident applications, plus the MidWest Aqua Care scheduling during February for the 2006 season. Paul J. and Angela M. believe that this should be part of the Officers’ duties; led by the President. The question of who to do the algae treatments was presented. It was suggested that the President gather the necessary volunteers for these activities. Mike R. said that he would work with Craig K. regarding the due dates for permits and such.

Paul J. volunteered for the 2006-2007 Vice-President position. He said that he has been avoiding it long enough. Julie K. nominated Angela M. to remain as the Secretary for the next term. Mike R. insisted that there was not enough representation; nor a quorum. Craig K. asked if a meeting could be called out on the Lake during the weekend if there were plenty of people out on their boats. Julie K. suggested a winter meeting/party. Mike R. said that it could be a political rally. Craig K. stated that he would schedule a winter meeting as the successor President. Angela M. will send out an e-mail with the nominees and to ask for others or volunteers, plus to advise of the winter meeting that will be scheduled specifically for officer voting.

Mike R. stated that Dave Tabbut volunteered to again do the website next year.

Craig K. motioned to adjourn at 8:37pm. Mike R. seconded.
