LT Chamber of Commerce meets .....
Card of thanks
The regular monthly meeting
of tile Lone Tree Chamber of
Commerce was held at Pioneer
Place on Oct. 15, 2001. President
Kris Gillham called the meeting to
order at 6:48 P.M. with the follow-
ing members present: Paul Hain,
Grynneth Parizek, Bob Petsel,
Russ Forbes, Ron Rife, Delores
Rife, Jim Stock, Clarence Tharp,
Marvin Klebe, Wilbur Huff,
Lester Bell, Gerry Burr and Judy
Hills.
Moved by Huff and seconded
by Tharp to approve the minutes
of the 9-24-01 meeting. Motion
carried.
Moved by Forbes and second-
ed by Klebe to approve the 9-8-01
to October 12, 2001 Treasurer's
Report. Motion carried.
Gillham discussed the 2001
Motodoway. Everyone enjoyed
having this event go through Lone
Tree. We felt that the support of
the Lone Tree residents couldn't
have been better. Rife commented
that he had talked with Dr.Mills
after the event and Dr.Mills had
several members of MotorIoway
comment that Lone Tree was their
best "pitstop." Grynneth com-
mented that the Lone Tree
Historical Society was very
pleased with the number of shirts
that were sold and the sales after
the event also took place through
phone calls. Everyone felt that the
boy scouts did a good job with the
selling of their doughnuts and
popcorn.
Moved by Petsel and seconded
by Rife for the Lone Tree
Chamber of Commerce to pur-
chase a $25.00 gift certificate from
LT's Fine Grocery for one of the
Holiday Drawings and to continue
giving away 5 turkeys and 2 gift
certificates during the months of
November and December. Ed.
Eden, owner of LT's GrOcery has )
donated the other $25:00 Gift
Certificate.
Moved by Forbes and second-
ed by Tharp to have the Santa
Claus at the School changed to
doing treat sacks for the children
at the Little Engine Preschool and
not to have Santa Claus present.
Grynneth made this suggestion as
it was difficult to plan on how
many treat bags to prepare and last
year we ended up having to take a
majority of them to the preschool
because of the attendance at the
actual event.
Moved by Huff and seconded
by Klebe to take $5,000.00 from
the Lone Tree Chamber of
Commerce' savings account and
purchase a three month certificate
of deposit. When our certificate of
deposit #108577 comes due on
November 24,2001 we will renew
that one for $5,000.00 for another
six months and take the interest at
that time and deposit it to our sav-
ings account. We will then end up
with $10,000.00 in certificates of
deposits.
A reminder went out to all
members of the Chamber that their
annual dues need to be paid in the
amount of $10.00 per person.
Paul Hain invited the Lone
Tree Chamber of Commerce out
to Syngenta for our November
monthly meeting. Syngenta will
have a meal catered in for the
Chamber and after the meal, the
Chamber will receive a tour of the
plant. Everyone was very open to
this idea and was very grateful to
Paul Hain and Syngenta for the
offer.
Moved by Huff and seconded
by Klebe to adjourn. Motion car-
ried.
We would like to thank the
wonderful Lone Tree First
Responders for their fast response
to my medical problem Nov. 7.
My five-day stay makes me
really appreciate good nurses'
and doctors' help. I also want to
thank Rev. Rouse's visit and my
friends who visited and the get
well cards.
Ruth Forbes
