PRESIDENT’S COLUMN<br />
The May annual work bee was cancelled due to<br />
rain and was moved to the regular work bee on<br />
May 23 rd - and what a beautiful sunny day we had.<br />
There was a great turn out<br />
and everyone had a good<br />
time. The grounds looked<br />
great by the end <strong>of</strong> the day.<br />
Thanks to everyone who<br />
came out.<br />
We also finally got a<br />
couple <strong>of</strong> good Fridays in<br />
May to kick <strong>of</strong>f the Classic<br />
Car Cruise. We have many<br />
new cars this year. I hope to<br />
see the Cruise keep growing and look forward to<br />
seeing many <strong>of</strong> our new members come out, enjoy<br />
the show and have dinner outside at the grill or<br />
come in for the Fish Fry.<br />
This past turkey season had many members<br />
traveling all around the state. From what I heard<br />
the ones who stayed in the southern part <strong>of</strong> state<br />
had more successes than the hunters who went<br />
north, although everyone had fun whether they<br />
bagged one or not.<br />
There will be many things to do at the club this<br />
June, starting with the 5 th annual Walleye<br />
tournament on June 5 th with <strong>Multi</strong>-<strong>Lakes</strong>, Windsor<br />
Sportsmen’s Club and the Oakland County<br />
Sportsmen’s Club all leaving out <strong>of</strong> the Toledo<br />
Beach Marina. They will then return to the club<br />
for the weigh in, and then the best part - a Walleye<br />
dinner and plaques to the winners.<br />
The club will be hosting the 5 th annual National<br />
Patrol Rifle Competition on Sunday June 6 th with<br />
set up on the 5 th . Much help is needed to put this<br />
event on and help set it up.<br />
There is also a Sporting Good's Swap Meet on<br />
Sunday June 6 th in the Club House Meeting Room.<br />
On June 11 th 12 th and 13 th , the Nineteenth<br />
Annual Summer Rendezvous will be held on the<br />
grounds and this is always a great time.<br />
With all the special events I look forward to<br />
seeing everyone around the club this June, not to<br />
mention all our regular events.<br />

Epilogue: <strong>Multi</strong>-<strong>Lakes</strong> Conservation Association<br />
(MLCA) founded in 1942….<br />
It can happen. Read your <strong>Multi</strong>-Laker financials.<br />
Look around at the empty businesses and buildings.<br />
When did you last shop at a K Mart or see a Farmer<br />
Jack? Some businesses have failed through no fault <strong>of</strong><br />
their own. Others have held on to outdated standards<br />
from the past, not planning for tomorrow. Successful<br />
businesses plan ahead. <strong>Multi</strong>-<strong>Lakes</strong>, must meet the<br />
financial, and competitive challenges <strong>of</strong> today and the<br />
future. Change is hard & 2010 is a critical year. We<br />
must work together to improve and move ahead if we<br />
expect a future for our Club. Sincerely, ~Don Navigato<br />
~ Officer’s Corners ~<br />
~ Membership Secretary ~<br />
Well I got through my first Membership<br />
Initiation Meeting as your Membership<br />
Secretary on May 15 th . I have to say it was a<br />
learning experience, but also a very fun event.<br />
I can’t thank the chairpersons and <strong>of</strong>ficers enough for<br />
their help and guidance. We promoted 54 people from<br />
Conditional to Probationary status. This is a great start<br />
and I know that we can continue to grow this club with<br />
quality members.<br />
My goal is to have at least 3 Initiation meetings this<br />
year. The original intent was for 4 meetings, but I<br />
needed to wait until we passed the new By-Law in<br />
March. It was great to see that a lot <strong>of</strong> the Conditional<br />
members had attended functions and started to accrue<br />
hours.<br />
I know I am repeating myself, but with all the new<br />
members it is important that we remember to wear our<br />
name badge. I stressed that to the new Probationary<br />
members so we can get to know names and faces.<br />
Thanks again to everyone for making my experience<br />
as Membership Secretary a fun time.<br />
Don’t forget to sponsor at least one new member!<br />
Let’s make 2010 a banner year, ~ Mark Geiger<br />
~ Recording Secretary ~<br />
Greetings to all:<br />
Welcome to all the new members joining<br />
our exceptional organization! Now that<br />
it’s your club too, come out and show it<br />
<strong>of</strong>f to your friends and family – it’s here for you to<br />
enjoy, building friendships and memories. Veteran<br />
members – please welcome the newer members and<br />
share your knowledge and great experiences!<br />
Mark your calendars for…<br />
*National Patrol Rifle Conference is June 6 th – an<br />
incredible event and we can participate!<br />
*Beef Cookout is July 31 st – slow cooked top rounds,<br />
music, dancing and fun – an excellent way to spend a<br />
summer evening, only $10 per person.<br />
*Car Cruise/Fish Fry Fridays – Held every Friday<br />
night! Come out to see the classics and dine at the fish<br />
fry or grab something <strong>of</strong>f the grill outside!<br />
Thanks to everyone who helps make this club what it is<br />
today and strive for a better tomorrow!<br />
Best wishes, ~ Tracey Griggs<br />
~ Treasurer ~<br />
Happy Father’s Day to all <strong>of</strong> our<br />
dad’s, hope you enjoy your day.<br />
This month I am going to get into what<br />
kind <strong>of</strong> things we all can do to help out<br />
with the funds. The biggest thing any <strong>of</strong> us can do is<br />
find us more Members. Not just anybody but someone<br />
who will be <strong>of</strong> value to the Club and the Club will be <strong>of</strong><br />
value to them. Next point out things that need repair<br />
before they become big things that need repair. Let us<br />
know if you see any waste that we can stop, lights left<br />
on, heat set to high, A/C set to low those kind <strong>of</strong> things<br />
to help us save money.<br />
Be fair about what we expect for free food and drink,<br />
don’t abuse the system. Come to the Work Bee’s and<br />
help us save money by doing repairs our selves. Take<br />
care <strong>of</strong> Club property so we don’t have to pay for<br />
things to be fixed. Return all Club equipment to its<br />
proper place, so we don’t pay to replace it. Help put on<br />
an event or assist with a standing committee to raise<br />
more money. Any and all <strong>of</strong> these items will help us<br />
survive the tough times we are going through.<br />
Later, ~ Dave;<br />

Discussion followed.<br />
Treasurer: Dave Fisher stated that financially speaking we are<br />
behind where we were last year. Fundraising & Shooting<br />
activities are down, but the new membership procedures should<br />
help. Dave stressed the need for more teamwork and cooperation<br />
in these tough times.<br />
OLD BUSINESS<br />
Cal Kittinger talked about mining the ranges for lead as soon as<br />
possible. We are sitting on a lot <strong>of</strong> money. Discussion followed.<br />
ROUND TABLE<br />
Pete Cesaro Sr. – Summer Skeet & Trap League has started, but<br />
there is still time to join. The trap machine repair area in the pole<br />
barn was established with donated equipment & money, so there<br />
has been no cost to the club. Bud Hope has separated the lighting<br />
switches, so all fields do not have to be turned on to use just one.<br />
Marie Miller – Thanks to the Haunted Forest crew for such a<br />
good cleanup job this year, it made getting the outdoor archery<br />
range ready much easier. A search for the Archery plaques &<br />
trophies that were stored when the range was remodeled, proved<br />
to be a futile and occasionally insulting effort. Marie prowled<br />
around attics, closets, and other storage areas. When finally going<br />
to search the pole barn, she was challenged by someone who told<br />
her that the Archers never had any space in there. Rude actions &<br />
self interests are not what this club needs. Working together with<br />
respect will help make the club as great as it once was. If anyone<br />
knows where the missing items might be please contact Marie.<br />
Dave Mercieca – Wood splitting by the Rendezvous group was<br />
rained out with the last workbee, but will try again on May 23 rd .<br />
Clint Double – Rendezvous June 11, 12 & 13, come out to see us!<br />
Larry Cohorst – Reporting for Lyn Lash that she is planning a<br />
Sault St. Marie casino trip. Don Navigato requested that Lyn<br />
submit the dates for approval.<br />
Dave Mercier – Slingshots are wrapped up for the year and he &<br />
Mark Geiger will step down, with Jim Morphew & Charlie<br />
Stevens taking over as chairmen.<br />
Chris Peltier – On the subject <strong>of</strong> Slingshot, thanks you Marshal<br />
Maybrier who voluntarily showed up every Thursday to bartend.<br />
NEW BUSINESS<br />
Lucy Petrowski asked if there were any rules for starting new<br />
committees, events, or fundraisers? Dave Fisher responded that<br />
there is no <strong>of</strong>ficial procedure, but things <strong>of</strong> that nature should be<br />
brought up before the Board. Discussion followed.<br />
Pete Cesaro Sr. inquired about the bus trip to Windsor<br />
Sportsman’s Club. Discussion followed.<br />
Motion to adjourn at 9:08pm Cal Kittinger/Chris Peltier.<br />
Carried unopposed.<br />
Respectfully submitted,<br />
Dave Leonard, Editor, The <strong>Multi</strong>-Laker<br />
D_Leonard@<strong>Multi</strong><strong>Lakes</strong>.com<br />
Pete Rinehart – Thanks to all who donated to Horticulture.<br />

Shooting, social events, fundraising, food service & education<br />
income down from prior year; only thing up is facilities costs<br />
over $4.6k. Down $11.6k for the year, $28.7k down from<br />
same period last year. As B.O.D., we have to run the club as<br />
a business, and separate personal from the needs <strong>of</strong> the<br />
club. Need to get many more new members to increase<br />
membership, involvement, and volunteering. Been over ten<br />
years since we’ve increased dues, and want this as a last<br />
resort. Critical to increase income, decrease costs, and<br />
maintain and repair the overall property.<br />

allegations regarding a club raffle. Dave wanted to note that<br />
the way we do our raffles has been complemented by our<br />
inspectors; our records are accurate, up to date and in<br />
compliance with all the state requirements. Bingo next week<br />
will draw great participation due to the size <strong>of</strong> the jackpot.<br />
Need assistance with Bingo to meet and exceed the patrons<br />
needs. Need to review opening up the indoor ranges for just a<br />

I had my pop-up blind set up in the<br />
middle <strong>of</strong> a 35 acre alfalfa field. Four<br />
big Tom's entered the field 250 yards<br />
away. The boss gobbled and displayed.<br />
A hen immediately yelped from the<br />
corner <strong>of</strong> the field. The Tom's headed<br />
in her direction. I yelped on my slate<br />
call and they turned toward my decoys.<br />
About 50 yards away they seemed to<br />
hang up however a little breeze made<br />
my jake decoy in half-strut, wiggle.<br />
They came charging in. The boss<br />
stopped and displayed 2 feet in front<br />
<strong>of</strong> my hen decoy. The 20 yard shot<br />
yielded a heavy bird with a 10" beard<br />
and wide 1 1/8" spurs.<br />

Summer League’s a go, but I don’t think the Sun God<br />
knows it. You know the poem, rain rain go away. Can’t<br />
figure out if you have to wear raingear or bug spray,<br />
myself I’d opt for spray.<br />
Let’s keep those Junior Bowhunters going. Get your<br />

Those Great Friday<br />
Nights at M.L.C.A.!<br />
By Tracey Griggs<br />
Looking for something fun,<br />
inexpensive and relaxing to do on a<br />
Friday night this summer? Then<br />
<strong>Multi</strong>-<strong>Lakes</strong> has your answer! Every<br />
Friday night our club <strong>of</strong>fers to all<br />
who would like to join both a<br />
fantastic fish fry and our fabulous car<br />
cruise.<br />
The fish fry has been a frequented<br />
event for decades. It’s an all you can<br />
eat affair, <strong>of</strong>fering not only baked<br />
and fried fish, but also broasted<br />
chicken, potatoes, salad bar, veggies<br />
and breads.<br />
Fred Koby is the chairman for the<br />
committee, working with six different<br />
crews on a rotating schedule. When<br />
chatting with Fred regarding the<br />
function, he commented that the fish<br />
fry has excellent attributes; it’s an<br />
opportunity to come to the club with<br />
your friends and family, plus it’s a<br />
great fundraiser for the club. Fred<br />
also wanted to thank Ken Behrens<br />
for his years <strong>of</strong> dedication, recently<br />
passing the chairmanship to Fred.<br />
Each crew has a crew leader, who<br />
trains and manages the other<br />
volunteers, covering the kitchen,<br />
clean up and cashiering duties.<br />
During the fish fry each week the<br />
Gun-A-Week drawing is pulled and<br />
the winner announced.<br />
The hours <strong>of</strong> the fish fry are 5:30<br />
PM to 8:30 PM, year round. Cost is<br />
$8 for a general ticket, seniors over<br />
62 years old are $7.50, and children 5<br />
– 12 years old are $5.50. Come on<br />
out and enjoy!<br />
16<br />
The car cruise is truly spectacular,<br />
for the patrons can truly take their<br />
time and behold the classics, chat<br />
with the owners, and swap car<br />
stories.<br />
This is the fourth year <strong>of</strong> our car<br />
cruise and it continues to grow in<br />
participation. Drivers are encouraged<br />
to bring out their cars and park them<br />
on our main field, in the center <strong>of</strong> the<br />
grounds. Rows upon rows <strong>of</strong><br />
beautiful cars to be beheld by all<br />
guests.<br />
Each ‘cruiser’ gets a driver ticket<br />
upon entry, and each evening there<br />
are six prizes awarded through the<br />
driver raffle. Thanks to our local<br />
Auto Zone, Knight’s Auto, and<br />
Murray’s Auto Parts who have<br />
supported M.L.C.A. with prize<br />
donations!<br />
There is no admission charge for<br />
the drivers or the guests enjoying the<br />
show. Participants are not required to<br />
be members. Cruisers arrive<br />
throughout the afternoon and early<br />
evening, and the event wraps up<br />
generally around dusk.<br />
Skip Worden has been the<br />
chairman <strong>of</strong> the event since its<br />
inception, and you can see him out<br />
there running the event nearly every<br />
Friday. Skip commented that he<br />
loves getting the opportunity to show<br />
<strong>of</strong>f the club, the cars and provide<br />
everyone with a great time. Skip also<br />
noted that if a person is looking for a<br />
burger rather than going into the fish<br />
fry for dinner, we do have a small<br />
grill area set up so folks can grab a<br />
bite outside as well.<br />
Skip is always looking for people<br />
to help staff the grill, and crews are<br />
assigned on a rotating schedule. If<br />
you haven’t seen this event, come out<br />
and enjoy the view!<br />
These two Friday night functions<br />
<strong>of</strong>fer a full evening <strong>of</strong> fun and food.<br />
Many patrons stroll around and look<br />
at the cars, then grab a bite to eat at<br />
the fish fry or the outdoor grill, and<br />
then back out to look at the cars<br />
again to chat with the owners and<br />
other guests appreciating their<br />
beauty.<br />
Then, if you are looking for<br />
dessert, the Boy Scouts frequently<br />
sell ice cream within the fish fry. For<br />
members interested in volunteering<br />
to work the event, please contact the<br />
chairmen. For new members, this is<br />
an easy way to get two functions in<br />
one night and meet many club<br />
members participating in the events.<br />
All in all, it’s a wonderful way to<br />
spend an evening close to home and<br />
to enjoy your club with friends and<br />
family. Please come out and enjoy<br />
your Friday evenings with us!
