Andover Sportsmen's Club

The Board of Directors reports are as follows for the month of January 2014.

Please see the separate "Letter from the President" for this month's President's Report.

On behalf of your entire 2013 Board of Directors we hope all ASC members have had a wonderful Christmas and that 2014 will be a year of good health and happiness for us all.

I believe that 2013 was truly an excellent year for our club. We continue to strengthen our fiscally sound financial position while at the same time investing significantly in maintaining and enhancing our physical faculties. This can only be done by you having a Board of Directors that is uniformly dedicated to the betterment of the club as a whole, with a complete absence of vested interest in any single club department.

The contributions of the many new directors in 2013 have been structured, disciplined and in all respects exemplary which should insure that the future of our club will be in good hands.

I look forward to introducing to you the 2014 Board of Directors at the forthcoming January Membership Meeting.

Dick Reichter, President

Time to announce the formation of a new Social Committee that has been formed to provide opportunities for the membership to meet in social situations. We have approximately 1500+ members, but very few actually participate in Club activities. So this is the opportunity for you to suggest events that might be of interest to you. Some of the events would be for members only, while others would be open to guests. And, there will certainly be events specifically for the family.

Our year runs from January 1 to December 31. Annual dues will be invoiced in September and must be received by the Treasurer on or before December 31st, 2013. If we do not receive your dues by that time, you will be dropped from the membership list, not be permitted to access the club property, and your key card will be deactivated. You may, within 30 days thereafter, be reinstated if you provide a written request for re-instatement to the Board of Directors and remit your 2014 dues plus a $30 late fee. After 30 days, you will be deemed delinquent for nonpayment and will be dropped from the membership in the Club.

My fellow members,

I sincerely hope everyone will make a conscientious effort to attend the December 12, 2013 Membership Dinner Meeting celebrating not only the commencement of the Christmas Holiday Season but also the end to that which I believe by all standards of measure has been an extremely successful year for ASC.

It has been a pleasure and honor for your Board of Directors to serve and attend the best interest of all members.

My best Holiday wishes to all members and your families.

Thank you,

Dick Reichter, President
