Re: August Meeting schedule (3)Hello Fred,
I Think it would be good if we could put together an agenda for all the
work that we would like to cover during the Helena meeting. I'm not
sure of all the things that have to be done but those items will have to
have priority. I'm including the Statement of Purpose which we talked
about some years back in Helena. I'm not suggesting that this is what
we need but it was what we have listed on the website so lets throw that
in with what you have listed so we can say that we considered it. That
brings to mind the website also. This joint project is just not working
with Washington State. We had hoped to try to show the continuity
between all the Community Airport Associations so that we could speak
with a stronger voice across the USA. I gave them $250.00 to set the
thing up and register the domain plus what ever else it would take to
start building on it. The young webmaster is much like many computer
guru's and doesn't seem to have much interest in maintaining it for us,
they often just like to build them. I told him last April that I was
not satisfied with the arrangement. We sat down and agreed to a plan of
action which failed completely. I have sent him numerous items to post
and he has failed to do so. If we are going to do a website it is
going to have to be different than this! That was a bad call on my part
so we might want to consider what the over all plan might be for that
project in the future. I can fill the group in on the details. Here
are a few things that we might need on the agenda plus what you have for
us.
1. By-laws
2. Articles of incorporation
3. Statement of Purpose.
4. Tax I.D. and associated information along with finance management
policy. All money issues here!
5. List all things that will need to be addressed at Lewistown with the
General Membership.
6. Proposed ideas for agenda in LWT.
7. Website
8. Other Business
Here is the present statement of purpose.
The Montana Community Airport Association (MTCAA) is dedicated to
encouraging effective general aviation airport management through
education, networking, hosting of semi-annual conferences and improved
communications among airport sponsors, airport professionals and
airport-related government agencies.
Best Regards,
Bailey

Good call Fred, Jerry was the only one that requested Great
Falls and that was just his preference. Helena will be fine!

Just found out that the weekend we want to meet is not a
good weekend for accommodations in Great Falls, its fair week. Let’s
move it to Helena that weekend and I will look at accommodations there.
