Discussion: Les discussed our next club road trip, NYPower 11 in Geneseo New York, July 1st-July 4th, 2005. As usual this will be our largest road trip of the year and should be well attended by many Sky Busters. The main topic of discussion involved what equipment we were taking and in particular what Hybrid capabilities we will have on hand. It was decided that we would bring the club Hybrid equipment. Chris Pearson will bring his large pad and Marty Dorociak will also bring equipment. We will not bring any Nitrous and will rely on the local club to provide at least one K tank per day for our use.
Conclusions: None

Discussion: Les Kramer discussed that we are in the planning phases for our biggest launch of the year, GLRMR V. Les discussed that we are looking at the weekend of April 23rd or 24th. The land owner was present at our last launch and Les discussed the upcoming event. The farmer mentioned that he may plant crops before the event. If this happens, we may have to move our location to our alternate field. If this is the case we will only have a 2500 waiver in effect. Les discussed that he tested the new PA system and everything works as planned. Les also mentioned that a food vendor will be on site as well as SFSM Industries, Cowboy Rocketry and LOC.
