February 2014 by Charles Brecheisen

Greetings Altair Crew.  Here is your monthly report for February 2014.

I am again using the new Altair Emailing address as the old one no longer worked.  The old email list was about 350 shipmates with another 140 shipmates getting snail mail.  Of the 350 Emailable shipmates, about 110 addresses were kicked back to me as bad or non deliverable.  I snail mailed the undeliverable email addresses asking for a new Email address or snail mail address and have received about 10 responses and will try and track down the others using the Internet and phone calls.

FINANCIAL:  The beginning February Cash-in-hand balance was $1040.00 with income of $10 and expenses of $181.54 leaving a balance of $868.46.  Expenses were postage, envelopes, printing and labels.  The beginning and ending savings balance $6559.61 with no changes.  The total Altair cash is $7468.07.  

NEW SHIPMATE:  Please welcome aboard Shipmate Raymond C. Fogle, FN, 1962-1964.  Shipmate Fogle resides in Henderson, NV.  WELCOME ABOARD!
