Reviewed By-laws. Ken Schultz proposed the By-laws be presented at the July annual meeting for approval and passage. Harold Kling seconded. A copy of the by-laws will be sent to members before the July meeting along with the notice of the July meeting. Ken motioned Sandi take revised by-laws to be printed in simple booklet form--100 copies-- and authorize expense of such printing. Harold seconded.

Treasurer reports $601.23 expenses and a to-date balance of $1,348.41 includes the final payment having been made to WSCC. Sandi will buy 2 - $5 coupon books from McDonald's for the children and a plant for a door prize for the picnic.

No news from Dr. Helal about future lake study so this will be decided on May 21.

Bob, Ken and Harold are meeting May 10 with Cadillac DEQ and DNR discussing lake study, grants available, getting pamphlets and information suitable to be included in a packet available to new members and interested parties.

Ken motioned and Harold seconded that Sandi and Bob be the authorized signatures on the checking account for Hackert Lake Association and action will be taken to bring this into effect.
