 Treasures Report:
 Fund balance $26,197
 Fuel costs, goomer repairs, taxes total approximately $6,700 leaving about $19,500
 Expenses for the LMC were more than first anticipated.

 Trails:
 Keeping them opened with new orchard fencing is going to be a challenge in the future. We have a successful reroute of C4 at WN31 north of Brickschoolhouse Rd to WN35, and S48 south to WN 52
 We are still looking at getting the sign boards with the maps at each junction.
 We had to officially close a portion of C4 from Port Gibson to Marion. It can still be accessed by road but is not signed until we clear some landowner approvals.

 Groomers:
 Groomers have been showing their age. We have managed to keep them running, but they are really in need of being replaced.
 The New Holland and Yellow Canaltown groomers are for sale.
 2 Canal town groomers have also had some repair work needed as well.
We will be looking at scheduling grooming times next year to keep them running as much as possible.
