ur annual member's meeting is on for March 24 at 7:00 pm. For the first
time, we will be using Zoom for this event. Ben Sorenson will be attending
Oto update us on City issues and answer our questions. We have two open
board seats to be filled and all leadership positions to be confirmed.

We have been working on security cameras for a few years and will have a
proposal presented at this meeting. The proposed system will have cameras that use
solar energy for power and cell service to communicate. We feel that this approach
is reasonably priced and addresses our security concerns.
