~ Work Bee ~ June 20 th ~


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 />

TREASURER’s REPORT:<br />

Dave discussed the following:<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 />

Cal noted the motion to increase bar pours from 1.5 oz. to<br />

2 oz. was a 33% increase in cost. Dave stated that bar costs<br />

as well as others will need to be addressed in the near future,<br />

losing money. Finance Committee meeting soon, and then<br />

then lead can be recovered next summer. Discussion<br />

followed.<br />

Dave noted that a non-member got up and spoke at the<br />

last general membership meeting making incorrect<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 />

few people to alleviate expense <strong>of</strong> opening.<br />

Dave Fisher/Cal Kittinger moved to approve Club Manager<br />

Barry Anderson’s vacation days as requested. WITHOUT<br />

~ Hunt Photos ~<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 />

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 />

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!
