Further discussion of membership fees indicates an interest in a Lifetime membership fee at all levels. Also, that an extra line be added to the application $______ for an extra contribution.
Discussion of the scope of the organization, and suggestions:
Lake Level - Other HOBOs have appealed directly to FERC (Federal Energy Regulation Commission) to start a higher water level several years early on a trial basis. There is a need to attend the Alabama Power re licensing meetings. HOBOs need to participate in subcommittees.
Water Quality Committee - Lake Watch would participate as the HOBO subcommittee for water and all environmental issues.

The next meeting is tentatively planned for Saturday, June 23 at 4:00. The Alexander City Elks Lodge will be contacted regarding availability on that date. Meetings will rotate around the lake. An announcement will be made on Lakemartin.com, in the newspapers, and via email to the members who signed up today.

I used to live in Tavernier on Largo Key, MM 92. Yeah, yeah, I didn't name the place. I'm sure lots of forum members would like to live where there's a Tavern near. Hmm, that is sounding pretty good about now.
Where did you go? Big Pine seems to a favorite for camping.

We were at the Sea Base scout camp on the south west corner of the island..... Great experience and a class operation. We camped on Munson Island for a night and went deep sea fishing, snorkeling, sailing, and more. Fun was had by all.
Support the Boy Scouts of America!
