Hi Brad
We still have the same trap help so we should be fine.
I never wanted to get rid of someone that’s doing a great job. We just were trying to get our budget more manageable. It will be nice to not worry every day about finances.
It should be a great season.

Well Don I think your only hearing the story from one side. I didn’t say anything like that to jeopardize the shoot. I asked if they could do the shoot for $25,000.00 and was told he would call me back in about a week after talking to other coaching staff.
I heard 4 different story’s of what I said but not one was the truth. The truth was we needed to cut our budget.
Don’t assume things you weren’t a part of.
I have done and taught sales for years. I hope you would understand there are 2 sides. Enough said I don’t feel like playing games Don.
My goal is to go forward and see the WTA get out of debt and we have chose to go that direction.

Also many people have stated how they love the new forum I think it’s great.

[Dan Horkan]

I think it’s a matter of opinion. I think many peopl thought it was a great meeting.

Hey Brad
Amy say in as Secretary and we had the minutes to approve yesterday but not sure how it goes from there if it goes to Threasa or not there were very detailed because she wrote them as the meeting was going on.

Bill and Glenn possibly Pat

The house is sold and will be closed in 10 days.
The intire investment account will be transferred and paying down the note as it was collateral for the loan.
The concession stand was discussed and Jims wife said she would manage it if need be.
As far as being open and honest just means there will be transparent so members see what’s going on because in the past no one ever knew what’s going on and it helps having members at the meetings to be involved.

Hi folks
Well It was a interesting meeting today to say the least.
I really felt like we had a good meeting today even considering we had a rough late start.

Dewey (Jerry Farnsworth) is acting President now. I thought he did a great job not knowing what or if there was a agenda.

I think was some great things discussed and voted on. I hope and pray we can sell the commercial property on Highway 13. Also we are going to sell Rays house and pay down the not with the sale of that also.
I know I have heard at least a hundred times about our debt. These are very positive steps paying down debt and not spending money we don’t have. We have agreed to keep paying down the Summit Credit Union note with Rays funds which will save us loads of interest immediately every month as soon as we could get the funds released.

We are also entertaining a concession stand so we could raise money to help make payment out of proceeds from food, water and soda sales.

I believe we have been heading the wrong direction for some time now I think if we go this direction and work as a group of friends and we are open and honest we can go forward.

I hope we can put the past behind us and go forward as a team like a well ordered machine.

I hope that you would please drive forward with us!!!

Team WTA can and will be one of the premier shooting facilities in the upper midwest. Let’s fight for it like a winning team.

We are kind of like a football team with 3rd down everyone’s tired and beat up. But our hard work and dedication can get us a crossed the line for a first down and then a winning touch down.

We can win this one!!!
Be blessed

That’s is good news great job.

[Dan Horkan]

I know I thought the same as you did. I have received so many calls complaining on this asking what kind of meeting are we trying to run.

So many are saying that if they don’t get some real answers about our finances they want nothing to do with this group and would rather travel to big shoots and just shoot money shoots.

I can’t blame them. My wife has stated to me that on meeting days we can’t plan anything because you don’t know when it will get over. Never have I been on a board that has gone this long with very little production.

Guys I apologize for this but only can pray it changes as I’m not running a meeting. I don’t even know if I want to be a part of a ship that’s sinking with few life boats.

i believe this is a great organization but needs to seriously change our ways of thinking.

Pay down debt and regain support of the general membership.

We will get help if we do that al of the clubs are run by volunteers and this could for the most part also. First they need to know we care and we have a common goal. To get debt free.

[Dan Horkan]

Wow that was well said. Loud and clear. I have never been on a board that takes so long. We need committees and everything could be done before meetings. I never ran a meeting that went this long. So I say Amen to you preaching Phil

[Dan Horkan]

That’s rite Andy turn up the volume and let people know

[Dan Horkan]

Now we can make it an exclusive shoot and watch it turn into the next biggest shoot in the area. Let peopl know about it as you go to shoots

[Dan Horkan]

Well it is written. It is decided that the WTA Fall classic will be the weekend of  Sept 16-17-18 2016

[Dan Horkan]

I agree Ken. I was receiving so many calls now I can see what’s going on here and we can try to work together. I’m sure it won’t always be thisceasyand some even easier. But case and point is working toward one common goal.
