Old Business:
  • Gary Rantala fixed the waterline wire. The wire to the well was spliced outside in front of the building and shorted out
    under ground. A bypass line was run to the well to get us by until spring, as the ground is frozen and cannot be
    excavated.
  • As you can see! A lot of painting has been done inside the shop, a real improvement. Painting is being done by,
    Marge Kroeger, Ivan Troyer, and Ron Dickey. Since Ivan and Diane went south for the winter, Ron has been busy
    painting the red stripe on the walls.
  • Tell them how much their efforts are appreciated. Good job painters!
  • Gary Rantala is supervising the work of insulating the ceiling. Three panels are up now. Gary said the work takes
    three people, he will call on members at various times to help until the project is completed.
  • Dee Teske said; Vanessa, the Libby Christmas family was thrilled with the gifts and thanks the Igniter's for their
    generosity.

Unfinished Business:
  • Igniter's sign for each end of town along Hwy. 2. We need to draw up a plan and send it to Kalispell and Helena, also
    check with Libby Port Authority about moving the car display from the old drive-in theater to the Port Authority
    property along Hwy. 2.

New Business:
  • President: Dennis Souther is setting up committees and needs volunteers. He will post a list of the committees on the
    wall in the meeting room. Take time to check them out and please sign up where you would like to be of help to the
    Igniter's.

    communications and help them to get to know one another. A list should be provided by the membership committee.
