Old Business: Tinker thanked everyone who participated at Red Power. 

Mark Tanis reported that he had a very positive report from a family that attended our Summer Show. The family really enjoyed the show and commented about how nice it was to be able to see such a show at no cost. 

Tinker also commented that were a lot of good comments about the show from other people who attended. 

At this time we have still been unable to find parts for the mower. 

New Business: There will be a Pedal Pull at Luray on Monday, August 19th and one at Somerset on Saturday, September 14th at 10:00 A.M. 

The club will have tables at Somerset and Field Days of the Past. The Winter Show will be in the Winston Salem, NC area in February. We need to elect two new Board Members at the October Meeting. The terms of Bill Shaver and Berlin Zirk are up. Bill Shaver said he would be on the ballot again. Also, as Tinker is running for the National Board, he will be stepping down as President of the club. As Tyrone is Vice President, he said he would be on a ballot for President and Mark Tanis said he would consider running for Vice President. This will be taken up at the October Meeting. 

The Cub Cadet will be going to Pennsylvania to be redone. BBQ Sandwiches will be pre ordered on October 10th and the sandwiches will be made on October19th. 

The club has a new item for sale. It is a reproduction gas gage. The cost is $10.00. 

Relay for Life: Becky reported that there would be new hours for the Relay for Life at the fairgrounds. The time will be from 2:00 P.M. Saturday, May 2, 2020, until midnight. The auction would start at 2:00 P.M. 

McCormick Farm: Tinker, David, and Roger met with the new superintendent for the Farm. He said he wanted to continue things as they had been talked about in the past. McCormack Day is October 5th. Members can help with weekend tours (Saturday and Sunday) as they have done in the past. 

Several pieces of equipment at the farm can be redone. There is the possibility of starting the restoration or the Blacksmith Shop. 

National Auction is the last weekend of October, 2021. Do we want to consider doing the Auction? We would have to be there on Friday afternoon. The club would get a percentage of the sales but we would have to pay the fairgrounds. Roger Baker and Steve Scott are going to try to get more information. There will be more discussion before a motion is made to do the Auction. 

As there was no other business, Jerry McDonald made a motion that we adjourn. It was seconded by Robert Grogg. The motion carried.
