<p class="MsoNormal">ACCRS HO Members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We had another relatively quick club meeting this month. Here are the minutes from this month’s HO business meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Good Guys<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The next show is in just a few weeks on Saturday 03/23 and Sunday 03/24.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Note that the show ends at different times each day, so the shift times for each day are slightly different. Sign-up sheets are posted upstairs at the club. You can also email Jorg and/or myself with your shift selection(s).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As usual, please test your equipment prior to the show. No “first time” or untested equipment is allowed on the layout during shows.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Alameda County Fair 2024<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just an early note that this year’s Fair is scheduled for Friday 06/14 through Sunday 07/07. That gives you about 3 months to get your equipment ready. Please plan accordingly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Skills Training Classes<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No Skills Training Classes are scheduled for this month. We are still planning on having classes in the coming months, including maintenance of rolling stock and how to paint backdrops.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Electrical Team<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We reviewed the current issues that some members have encountered. If you encounter any layout problems, please email me with a full description and the exact location of the problem. Include a picture of the location if possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Wrap-up<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks to all and please let Jorg or me know if you have any other questions, ideas, or suggestions.
<o:p></o:p></p>
